About Verona
Verona,
the largest city in the Veneto with a population of a quarter of a million
people is world famous for the ill-fated love affair of Romeo and Juliet.
But, the medieval core of the city boasts numerous attractions.
Starting with the Romans conquering Verona, and ending with its
contemporary history, the different ages of the city are visible
through all the various monuments scattered around its historical
center.
In
addition to its many important monuments, you'll find delightful restaurants
and wine bars hidden away on its charming back-streets. Verona, also
provides ample opportunities to shop at its numerous boutiques and fashionable
stores.
The
hills that rise directly behind the city and their numerous olive trees
give a Mediterranean feel to the city. These hills are home to the
Valpolicella wine region, and the famous "Amarone" wine of
the Veneto.
