   • The Palace’s Central Square: the Peristyle. The peristyle was the Palace’s central square, where powerful Roman citizens gathered or came to worship Diocletian.
   • Vestibule. Just off the Peristyle is the Vestibule. This circular room is visually interesting and has impeccable acoustics. This was not an accident, but a crafty move.
   • Cathedral of Saint Dominus. The cathedral was originally Diocletian’s Mausoleum. It was built in 305 A.D, and Diocletian was interred there after his death in 311 A.D.
   • Bell Tower. The tall Romanesque bell tower was constructed between the 13-16th centuries. The climb is not for those with a fear of heights. Part of the way, you’ll be on flimsy metal step suspended over a void.
