It is a combination of modern and traditional Europe. Many expats live in Split, making it suitable for expats wanting to move here.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Split consistently ranks among the top Croatian cities to live in. There are great places to visit, and the city&#8217;s natural beauty is incredible. In terms of climate, it&#8217;s a comfortable city to live in as the temperatures are well-balanced.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Things To Do<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">On your day off, you can stop by one of the many galleries and museums, explore the breathtaking beaches, or go hiking or cycling in the mountainous regions.

Keep in mind that the city center has small, narrow roads where the only permitted mode of travel is on foot.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The other option is to rent a bike, which you can do at a number of local travel agencies or use one of the many free bicycles that are parked throughout the city. It is the best mode of transportation if you want to visit several attractions.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-sheets-root=\"1\" data-sheets-value=\"{&quot;1&quot;:2,&quot;2&quot;:&quot;&quot;}\" data-sheets-userformat=\"{&quot;2&quot;:14915,&quot;3&quot;:{&quot;1&quot;:0},&quot;4&quot;:{&quot;1&quot;:2,&quot;2&quot;:65280},&quot;9&quot;:0,&quot;12&quot;:0,&quot;14&quot;:{&quot;1&quot;:2,&quot;2&quot;:255},&quot;15&quot;:&quot;Arial&quot;,&quot;16&quot;:8}\"><div class='code-block code-block-31' style='margin: 8px 0; clear: both;'>\n<p><button class=\"mo-modal-open\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-4633\" src=\"https:\/\/www.pacificprime.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Blog-Banner_Europe_2.jpg\" alt=\"Blog Banner Europe 2\" width=\"1138\" height=\"493\" \/><\/button><\/p><\/div>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dubrovnik\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Are you looking for a warm, laidback city by the sea with culture, history, and attractions?
