What was once part of the harbour is now a beautiful town square full of shiny white marble. At the centre stands the statue of Giuseppe Tartini - the famous violinist, bon in Piran. The square serves as the mid point between the harbour below and the church above. A great place for a quiet beverage at any time of the day.

The walk uphill is absolutely worth it. Walking on this historic segment of the city wall not only imparts a sense of history, but it also provides great views of the historic town. Reasonably priced and a must for visitors. By walking a little farther uphill from the walls, we found a beautiful stone-paved walkway back down into town. The little cafe by the entrance has restrooms, and provided a nice place to stop for beverages after our tour of the walls.

This small working Adriatic harbor features pleasure and working boats, benches, tiny lighthouse type lighting devices at the entrance, and a walled and sidewalked promenade along the long area of docks. This is one of a number of wonderful resting spots in Piran to watch dawn, dusk, and weather and lighting changes over the Adriatic. Others include the Adriatic front and back sudes of Our Lady of Health Church and the walking area along St Grorge's Church,which looks DC own kn yhe city as nd coast. This free, safe, and open-to-all without fees Harbor area is near Tartini Square and frequented by sailors, tourists, locals,and photographers.
