Too Many Tourists ! Depending On The Seasons...
In a nutshell
A fantastic place to stay but also great as a base to visit northern Italy. Milan, Lake Garda and Venice are very close and transport is very cheap!
108 Reviews In the old town section of Verona on via Capello, there are many medieval era buildings. In one there is a small balcony overlooking a courtyard with a statue of Juliet. Of course, this is now the Juliet's Balcony and all things star crossed. We found it rather comical that so many people had to rub...
115 Reviews At most places you will not see the outside walls of the arena any more, as it was destroyed in an earthquake plenty of centuries ago and the inhabitants from Verona took away the stones to build and restore their own houses.. There is only a small part of the outside-facade left and you may see it...
90 Reviews I never saw such a lovely single column at any other place in Italy, BUT in Verona I saw the one in Via mazzini and this one at the south-east-end of the Piazza dell Erbe. And they are almost alike, at least by their structure and architecture. In the back of my picture you will also see a good...
Piazza dei Signori - Piazza Dante
62 Reviews Palazzo dei Tribunali is another interesting building facing Piazza Dante. In the innercourt you may see 2 round areas, covered by glass, where you woll be able to look down to a lower level of the ground with foundations and a mosaique of the roman times. The Palazzo dei Tribunali dates back to the...
Giulietta e Romeo Hotel Verona
4 Reviews and 408 Opinions The Giulietta e Romeo Hotel was a great place to stay in Verona. We thought we might have a problem...
3 Reviews and 463 Opinions I stayed here for 3 nights on a city break to Verona and couldn't have wished for a more perfect...
22 Reviews The name, in latin, meas something like "Winefood". It is a very small little restaurant, hiiden in a small "vicolo " west from Piazza Bra. A short walk from the roman Arena, but away from the crowds of tourists. Familly managed, they serve to the very few tables (there is a few upstairs so) a...
35 Reviews While ago, during one of my first visits to Verona, I had dinner in the restaurant situated on Piazza delle Erbe. It wasn't bad but also it was a bit under my expectations. This time I saw menu outside the restaurant indicating "bacalla" fish, and since it was friday (in my country it is habbit to...
23 Reviews Sunday, August 10, 1913 was the hundredth birthday of the composer Giuseppe Verdi. For this occasion his opera Aida was performed in the Arena di Verona -- the first opera performance in this magnificent open-air venue. By the end of the 2005 season they had performed Aida 484 times, and 16 more...
9 Reviews On Mondays the Arena di Verona stays dark to give all the people who work there a day off. So on the Monday evening when I was there I went to a chamber music concert in the courtyard of the church of San Luca (Chiostro di San Luca Evangelista) on Corso Porta Nuova just a block or so from Piazza...
20 Reviews DEPOSITO BAGAGLI is the italian name... You can find one (see picture #1) at the Porta Nuova Train station but, since every bus from/to the province stops there, it may be convenient for leaving your luggage while doing a few hours trip to the citycenter while changing bus, too. Looking at the...
7 Reviews The Ryanair site lists only one bus a day, but has two flights a day. I'm pretty sure that they run a bus to meet each incoming and outgoing planet, but you might want to double-check. I had no problems with the service at all, and it will always wait for you if the plane is late. The only confusion...
10 Reviews Via Mazzini is the sort of place I will be shopping in one day. Hopefully. Want some Gucci, Cartier or Fendi designer gear? Well, step over that guy from the Ivory Coast selling the knock off versions and amble down the street known as the 'Golden Mile' Its also quite a nice stroll from both...
6 Reviews This is definetely the object I would like to buy, and old gramophone which still works. The price was around one thousand euros, but negotiale. The fleamarket offers lots of various stuff, I am sure you'll find something according to your preferences.
14 Reviews In the entrance of the building, where you will see the famous (BUT false) balcony , where Giulietta Capelletti met Romeo Montecchi, you will be able to stick your Love-letters on a wall , where you will find already thousands of other love-letters. To post your love-letters there is to be said to...
11 Reviews Tocatì (Your turn! in Verona dialect) was a frequent word exanged beetween children playng along the roads, swapping roles in the games. How many times i told it! Time of no cars around, no PCs or videogames, very few TV if any... Now, a street festival of all the games usually played along the...
11 Reviews Most attractions and other buildings, some shops etc will be closed on a Monday But don't worry, there's still plenty to see and do, especially a lazy walk between the piazzas or some people watching in a cafe Or you could use Monday to take a trip to Venice or Lake Garda
5 Reviews This is Portoni della Bra, the City Gate - entrance into the Centro Storico of Verona. This part of the town is very crowded with thousands of tourists, also it is crowded with pickpockets too. Be very careful when entering in the Arena, standing in front of it surrounded with the crowd or strolling...
The hidden little gems of the town
26 Reviews The bust of Felice Cavallotti, 1842-1898, stands on the wall in the passage of Scaliger palace. He was Italian politician, poet and dramatic. In 1860 and 1866 he faught with the Garibaldi Corps. Cavalotti was killed on the 6th of March 1898 in a duel with Count Macola, editor of the conservative...
11 Reviews We found this walking to Castel San Pietro. You can walk in and see the "renaissance garden" open up to you. Even if you do not want to pay the 5 euro or so to see it, you can get a peek of the beautifully sculpted gardens. If you choose to see the entire gardens, including a great view of Verona,...
18 Reviews I have just one day, or just few hours... What is a real must see? How many time we visist a city, even deserving more, but we don't have the time to see it at the right (slow) pace. It's a pity, but everyone of us did it, right? So, if you have only a few hours, here is a guide of 4 verona...
64 Reviews The Scaliger period of Verona is one of great political influence, economic power and territorial expansion, it was the golden age of Verona. During medieval times the fight for dominance of Verona between leading families of the area ended with the della Scala (Scaligeri) family taking control in...

Architecture & dancingqueens reaching for the sky
Verona is certainly one of the best travel-destinations in Northern Italy !
The Arena, a roman amphitheatre wich is nearly 2,000 years old, is maybe the most known symbol of Verona..... after Romeo & Juliet, of course! It is still used for a famous open air opera festival...
On my visit to Verona in August 2006 I saw three open-air opera performances in the Arena di Verona: Verdi's Aida, Bizet's Carmen and Puccini's Madama Butterfly. What they had in common was that all...
