Verona Travel Guide

City of love: Roman Arena summer opera, Juliet's balcony and a medieval old town.

📍 Destination Overview

Verona, a historic city in the Veneto region, is world-famous as the setting of Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet. Juliet's balcony and statue draw crowds of lovestruck visitors. The well-preserved Roman Arena hosts spectacular open-air opera every summer. Piazza delle Erbe's market, Piazza dei Signori's statues, and Castelvecchio's red brick bridge reflected in the Adige River give the city a timeless medieval charm. Verona is also the gateway to Lake Garda - romantic and unhurried.
