A Taste of Verona

Verona is a city steeped in history, from its Roman roots to its time as part of the Republic of Venice. A designated UNESCO World Heritage Site, Verona boasts stunning architecture blending Romanesque, Gothic, and Renaissance styles. Visitors can explore well-preserved Roman ruins, including the iconic Arena, which still hosts opera performances.

Famous as the setting of Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet, Verona attracts tourists eager to see Juliet’s balcony and other literary landmarks. Beyond history, the city offers easy access to the scenic beauty of Lake Garda, renowned local wines like Amarone and Bardolino, and a vibrant cultural scene with annual events such as the Arena Opera Festival and the VinItaly Wine Festival – Cin Cin!
