Piran, the medieval town in Slovenia
Piran (Italian: Pirano) is a town and municipality in southwestern Slovenia on the Adriatic coast on the Gulf of Piran.
The Piran peninsula was incorporated into the Roman Empire in 178 and 177 B.C.
It is full of Italian charm. Venice is only 1.5hrs away, and the lights from Venice can be seen on a clear night. The whole town is one big attraction as this lazy fishing village has not changed much in 400 years. The cobble stone streets are so narrow that two people must walk single file.
Here`s where my grandmother and my mother were born and raised. They moved to Portoroz (the neighboor town) when my mother was ten years old.
