An ancient city by any stretch of the imagination. It seems bigger than is 200k population stats. Maybe the cruise ships help.
Ruins into restaurants, mausoleum inti church (tbe oldest in the world still being used in its original form). Yet room for fruit, veg and fish markets where normal people (the palace has a resident population of 1500) mingle with the tourists. Shutters abound.
Signs advertise EU structural funds usage in Croatia… take note British tourists who voted leave.
A city that’s turned itself from a starting point for the ferry to the islands into a destination. Great.
