Near the port of Piran there are several commercial activities: bars; coffee shops; pastry shops; restaurants; pizzerias; grocery stores; shops selling typical products and so on.
Those arriving by ferry or hydrofoil in Piran can start their visit immediately. In fact, both Tartini Square and the Church of San Giorgio, the main points of interest in the city, are just a few hundred meters away. The first is the beating heart of Piran and to the attentive visitor it immediately reveals the strong Venetian influence on the surrounding urban planning and architecture. En passant we point out the Palazzo del Comune, Palazzo Apollonio and the Venetian House, the latter famous for its red facade decorated with characteristic elements of Venetian Gothic.
The Cathedral of San Giorgio, on the other hand, dominates the town and its bell tower from above offers a magnificent view of Piran and its surroundings. As for the church, it dates back to the 14th century and in the sacristy houses a Parish Museum with screens and sacred objects usually used in the ecclesiastical setting.
Special mention for the ancient city walls. It is a medieval legacy and these too, like the church of St. George, offer a wonderful view of the Slovenian city. Finally, the promenade deserves a mention. Almost completely clear of cars, it is ideal for a relaxing walk, perhaps accompanied by a stop in one of the many restaurants present. To be seen!
