概要

クイックファクト: Streets of stone and narrow squares overlooking the Adriatic Sea hide a place where impressive 14th-century frescoes can be seen. Summer evenings here smell of salt and Mediterranean spices while you listen to Italian ballads that can sometimes be heard from local taverns.

見どころ: The square layout of the old part of the town, surrounded by walls, preserves the Church of St. George with a bell tower 46 meters high, offering a panorama of the entire Slovenian coast. Local fishermen and winemakers keep traditions alive, which you can feel through their stories and tastings of fresh fish and Malvasia, the wine variety from this area.

インサイダーヒント

Wear comfortable shoes because of the stone streets and the climb to the bell tower.
Photos from the church viewpoint offer a spectacular sunset.
Avoid the main market at midday due to crowds.
Try local specialties in smaller restaurants behind the main squares.
