It's the 3rd day to our trip, and we decided to dedicate the whole day to the magical city Verona.

Verona is one of the most central cities of northern Italy, and also one of the most touristic, located 30-40 minutes

away from Colombare di Sirmione.



Again, we navigated using our GPS to Verona through A4 road, and parked at the closest parking lot to the historical center named Parcheggio Cittadella. From here on, we traveled by foot the whole day. You can easily do that since all the touristic location are very close.



Tip: Make sure to buy the Verona ticket in one of the tobacco shops - for a reasonable price this ticket will grant you

passage to all the main sites in Verona. It pays off, believe us.

Our first stop of the day was Piazza Bra, the main square of the city that;s located near the greatest symbol of Verona - 

Arena di Verona. a monumental amphitheater, testifying on the Roman nature of the city and considered one of the biggest amphitheaters in the world.

​

From there we proceeded through the main street of via Mazzini, which packed with stores of all shapes and sizes, 

from designers like Gucci and Louie Vitton, to little merchant stands. 



Further on via Mazzini you will arrive to Piazza delle Erbe, the oldest square of Verona, from there you can easily follow the signs to get to the house of Juliet, meaning Juliet Capulet of course. To our opinion, nothing's very special about the place, nor the museum, but you can't be in Verona and not feel Juliet's right breast (for good luck...) -

From there we proceeded to Giusti's Garden (Giardini Giusti), a collection of Renaissance gardens that provides a peaceful getaway from the busy crowd of the historical center. Very recommended, very romantic.



Regenerated, we afterwards visited the Roman Theater (Teatro Romano) & the Archaeological Museum (Museo Archeologico), that hold remains from the 1st century, and has an amazing view to the city and the Adige river.

​

Continuing further into the city, we stopped at the Saint Anastasia church (Chiesa di Sant'Anastasia) - one

of the most beautiful and powerful churches you'll ever see. don't miss it, doesn't matter wether you're christian or not.

​

We've finished our site-seeing at the massive fortress that is Castelvecchio, that was built in the years between 1376-1354, and today hold a museum with stunning art pieces and items, including weapons from the time.

​

With the time we have left, we used for a bit of shopping, and of course - Pizza!

​

After a magical day, we kissed Verona goodbye and went back to our last night in Colombare.
