Overview
Slovenia's most beautiful coastal town juts into the Adriatic, a near-perfectly preserved Venetian-era gem of narrow lanes, red rooftops, and a marble main square named for composer Tartini. Surrounded by salt pans and azure sea, Piran feels like a slice of Italy on Slovenia's tiny coast.
Top attractions
Stroll Tartini Square, climb St. George's bell tower, walk the medieval walls, and explore the harbor.
Getting around
The car-free old town is entirely walkable, with a shuttle from the car parks and boats along the coast.
