The Journey
Juliet's House and Balcony
Step into the world of Shakespeare's star-crossed lovers at Juliet's House. Though the Capulet's actual home was elsewhere, this enchanting site features the iconic balcony, reconstructed from salvaged medieval stones in the early 20th century. Touch the bronze statue of Juliet for good luck in love, and leave a message on the love wall, perpetuating Verona's romantic legacy.
Castelvecchio Bridge (Scaliger Bridge)
Cross the Castelvecchio Bridge, a daring feat of medieval engineering and part of the formidable Castelvecchio fortress. Admired as the most audacious work of Verona's Middle Ages, this bridge offers stunning views of the Adige River and represents the Scaliger family's power, the rulers of Verona in the 14th century.
Pietra Bridge
Walk across the Ponte Pietra, Verona's oldest bridge and a testament to Roman resilience. As the sole surviving bridge from Roman times, it has withstood floods and even demolition during World War II. Painstakingly rebuilt using anastylosis—reconstructing the original stones—it offers breathtaking views and a tangible link to Verona's ancient past.
Porta Borsari
Marvel at Porta Borsari, one of the grand entrances to Roman Verona. Once known as Porta Iovia, due to its proximity to a temple dedicated to Jupiter, this imposing gate stands as a reminder of the city's Roman origins and its strategic importance. Admire the well-preserved facade and imagine the bustling life that once passed through its arches.
Verona Arena
Experience the grandeur of the Verona Arena, one of Italy's largest and best-preserved Roman amphitheatres. Built in the 1st century AD, this elliptical marvel once hosted gladiatorial contests and exotic animal hunts, accommodating up to 30,000 spectators. Today, it comes alive with world-class opera performances, offering an unforgettable fusion of ancient history and artistic brilliance.
Juliet's House
Delve into the poignant tale of Romeo and Juliet at Juliet's House. Though the actual location of the Capulet house was elsewhere, this site captures the spirit of Shakespeare's tragedy. The iconic balcony, though a 20th-century addition, embodies the romance of Verona. Explore the courtyard, adorned with love letters, and feel the enduring power of this timeless love story.
Arco dei Gavi
Discover the Arco dei Gavi, a rare example of a Roman honorary arch built for a private family. Located along the ancient Via Postumia, just outside the original Roman walls, this arch showcases intricate architectural details and offers a glimpse into the lives of Verona's elite during the Roman era. It stands as a testament to the city's rich history and architectural innovation.
