Poreč in 4K: Adriatic old town and the UNESCO Euphrasian Basilica

Walk through Poreč on the Adriatic, discover the Euphrasian Basilica and compare a second view of its coastal streets.

Arwin Tours' long old-town walk places Poreč between the Adriatic waterfront and streets with a much older urban pattern. Its outstanding heritage stop is the Euphrasian Basilica complex. UNESCO describes the sixth-century church, atrium, baptistery and related buildings as an unusually complete early Christian ensemble. That is a different experience from simply passing the exterior on a seaside walk. If you are planning a visit, set aside time to explore the historic peninsula on foot and treat the basilica as a separate cultural stop. Check access to the religious complex before travelling, especially when services or events are taking place.
