Throughout history, this charming coastal town has changed hands between superpowers and empires, yet its architecture is decidedly Venetian. Delight in touring its charming cobblestone lanes that invite you to step back in time. Be sure to visit the Cathedral of St. George with its marble altars and beautiful frescoes. Follow the medieval walls for panoramic views of the enchanting harbor, or set off on a boat tour along the coast or explore the nearby islands. Piran is also the gateway to the Škocjan Caves, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
