Why Piran matters
Piran feels like a smaller sibling of Venice, with a tight huddle of pastel houses, a bright main square and a church on the hill. Slovenia's coast is short, but this is its best part. Come for seafood, sunsets and swims off the rocks.
Talking points
- The architecture shows centuries of Venetian influence.
- The old town is on a narrow peninsula.
- Sunsets over the sea are popular.
