The largest tourist region of Dalmatia is the part around its largest city, Split, which only includes the Split-Dalmatia<br />

County. It is the heart and the centre of Dalmatia, where most of its inhabitants live, and where the main Dalmatian<br />

islands and the most beautiful beaches are located. This is also where the most valuable <strong>cultural</strong> monuments and<br />

four of the seven <strong>Croatian</strong> sites declared as World Heritage by UNESCO are - the historic centre of Split with Diocletian's<br />

Palace, the historical town of Trogir, and Starogradsko polje on the island of Hvar. If it is Dalmatia, as many<br />

say, which portrays the real pristine Mediterranean, it is precisely its central part around Split that is the heart of the<br />

Mediterranean.<br />
