Piran

Piran is a small coastal town with 3700 inhabitants located in Slovenian Istria, on the Adriatic sea. It is one of the country's major tourist attractions and is known for its historic architecture, narrow streets, and stunning views of the sea.

Between 1283 and 1797 Piran was part of the Venetian republic, and this influence can still be seen today in the town's architecture and layout.

The square is surrounded by historic buildings and is a popular spot for outdoor concerts and events.

The church dates back to the 12th century, although the current structure was built between 1592 and 1614. From the cathedral tower there are good views of Piran and the surrounding area.
