Place description
Piran, a town on the Slovenian Adriatic coast, is known for its rich history and location. Once part of the Republic of Venice, Piran has retained its Venetian charm – not for nothing will you feel like you’re in Italy. The narrow streets, historic buildings and city walls create an enchanting atmosphere that attracts visitors from all over the world. The city’s landmark is Tartini Square, named after the famous violinist Giuseppe Tartini, whose statue stands here.
Piran offers not only historical monuments, but also a beautiful coastline and crystal clear sea. The city is a popular destination for lovers of swimming, diving and other water sports. In addition, there are many cafes, restaurants and shops offering local specialties and products such as fresh seafood, olive oil and wines. Walking along the seafront, admiring the sunset and enjoying the local gastronomy are among the unforgettable experiences Piran has to offer.
It is worth a visit not only the seaside, but also the Duomo di San Giorgio on a slight hill, where you can see the surrounding area and the sea itself. Iconic is also the lighthouse right on the tip of the city, which can be seen not only from the sea, but almost every corner of the city.
Piran is one of several Slovenian towns on the Adriatic coast, close to the Italian border. In the vicinity there are also Izola and Portorož. So if you’re travelling through Slovenia towards Italy, be sure to add these towns to your list.
