A curated journey through the experience
Piazza Bra
To visit Verona it is natural to start from the central Piazza Bra, which blends buildings from different eras and architectures into the sunny and bright light that crosses it. The Arena, Palazzo Barbieri and the Gran Guardia are the most famous and admired, but not least are the Fountain of the Alps, the Liston with its noble palaces, the Visconti walls, the statue of Vittorio Emanuele II and the Pentagona Tower.
30 minutesArena di Verona
The Arena of Verona is, together with Juliet's house, the monument for which the city is famous in Italy and around the world. It is the third largest Roman amphitheater after the Colosseum and the arena of Capua. It can hold about 20,000 people, which is believed to have been the entire population of Verona in the 1st century AD, the period to which the construction of the monument dates back.
30 minutesCasa di Giulietta
The house is a severe 13th century medieval building, whose exposed brick facade is softened by elegant trefoil windows. At the front stands the famous balcony from which according to tradition Juliet looked out to talk to her Romeo.
30 minutesArche Scaligere
A monumental, majestic and scenographic tomb, which for over seven hundred years has welcomed the mortal remains of the ancient Lords of Verona. Here rest the Princes of the Della Scala family, with their elaborate equestrian sculptures that rise towards the sky as in an endless petrified tournament.
30 minutesPonte Pietra 1
Built in the first century BC to replace a pre-existing wooden bridge, Ponte Pietra is the oldest Roman monument in Verona and perhaps also the most impressive. It connected the original route of the Via Postumia with the hill in front of a ford, used since the dawn of time.
30 minutesSirmione
Called “la Perla del lago di Garda, i.e. the Pearl of Garda Lake ”, Sirmione is a wonderful destination, ideal for spending few hours of relaxation, in summer as well as during other periods of the year. Sirmione offers the opportunity to be engaged in manifold activities related to its historical and cultural heritage, its natural sights, local resources, typical products, markets and events.
