Probably few heard about the airport "Split". Croatia is a very warm country with many ancient cities and interesting sights, and it is in one of these settlements that the heavenly pier is located, which will be discussed in this article.
A little background
For many centuries the city of Split has stood on the ground, not far from which this eponymous airport was built. Croatia has many ancient sights, each of which has its own unique history. One of such Croatian “pearls” is the city of Split.
The history of the birth of this place goes back many centuries. It is believed that the city appeared long before our era. At first it was the Greek colony of Aspalatos. Then the city of Spalatum arose here. Translated into Russian, this name means "palace". Why did this settlement get the name Split after a while? There is still no data on this.
This city has seen different times: both good and bad. Many bloody wars took place near these places. And, as is known from history, Split was part of Austria, and part of France, and was occupied by Italians. And during the years of World War II, the Germans ruled on these lands.
Only in 1944, when the city was finally liberated, it became part of Croatia in the SFRY.
After some time, an airport was built 20 kilometers from Split. Croatia has several heavenly moorings, and this is rightfully considered the second largest of them in terms of passenger traffic.
