Klis Fortress is a stunning historic monument located on a hilltop with breathtaking views of the Split region. As I explored its winding stone staircases and fortified walls, I learned that the fortress has a long and tumultuous history, having been conquered and occupied by various civilizations over the centuries. It's impressive to see how the architecture reflects each era, from Roman to Ottoman. The fortress also has a connection to ancient mythology, as it is said to have been the birthplace of Hercules' father. The cultural significance of this place is undeniable and I highly recommend a visit.
