I am glad you like my photo of the square

I first visited Slovenia in the 1980s when it was part of Yugoslavia. It was affordable but it also had a certain magic about it which lodged in my heart. I would have returned for a visit many years ago but I couldn’t persuade Mr C that it was a place he would enjoy.

Slovenia hasn’t lost it’s magic and Mr C didn’t want to leave Piran

Amazing night shot of the square.

I thought it was unusual that a person from Sweden would want to move there in 1980. I suppose however it was more affordable.

That top one is like the circling of the wagon train.

The square dates to 1894 when the inner harbour was filled in for health and sanitary reasons. The water had become stagnant and smelly.

The square does look like the one in Siena.
But a bit newer.
