Podstrana is a small tourist place of the Mediterranean ambience and abundant vegetation, situated 8 km south from Split, the centre of Central Dalmatia, developing into it's elite suburb. Podstrana is embellished by dense vegetation and the natural gift of the clean sea and it is an excellent choice for the escape from the everyday life. It extends under the Perun hill 553 m high, and on its mild slopes were constructed the antique rustical villas, and the Reneissance village houses and palaces. The cradle of the ancient Podstrana is Stara Podstrana, the series of the secular horizontal stone houses, gardens and alleys in which forever lives the spirit of the past. From there life floated into the sea band where today are the urban places: Strozanac, Grljevac, Sveti Martin, i Mutogras. Two sanctuaries of Saint Juraj splend on the mountain peaks against the sky, the strongest two supports of the spiritualism of the sacred patrimony in the Old Croatia.The peace treaty between Duke Mislav and the Venetian dodge Tradeni was concluded near the church of St. Martin in Podstrana, in which „mare nostrum“ was mentioned for the first time ever.
