Koper: A Charming Mediterranean Port Town

🌴Koper, Slovenia's commercial port city, is just over an hour's bus ride from Ljubljana. 🌴From the bus station, a 10-minute walk takes you straight into the compact city center—small enough to explore entirely on foot. 🌟 Local Charm 🚦 The entire city operates without traffic lights—yet drivers always stop for pedestrians. The locals are exceptionally warm and polite. 🍴 Hidden Culinary Gem 💦We chose Fritolin (a highly-rated spot on Google Maps), only to find a humble roadside eatery with a queue! 💦This no-frills joint serves delicious and affordable Mediterranean fried seafood, like crispy squid—perfect street food. 🍦 Opposite it, an ice cream shop offers an array of fantastic flavors—don’t miss it! 🌅 Sunset Magic 💦In the evening, hike up the hill in the new town (20-30 mins). Take the scenic loop trail down to the seaside just in time for sunset. ✨ The sky blazed in pink and orange, casting a dreamy glow over the harbor’s fishing boats. 💙As we strolled along the pier, the colors deepened—one of the most breathtaking sunsets I’ve ever seen. Why doesn’t anyone talk about Koper’s sunsets? 💙If there were a global ranking, this would surely make the list. #SloveniaTravel #Koper #MediterraneanCuisine #FoodieFinds
