Ciao a tutti! From Verona with love ♡


Ciao a tutti!
 Last weekend we spent a wonderful weekend getaway in Verona, one of Italy's most beautiful and I dare to say Italy's most romantic city . 
The home of Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet and its vast roman amphitheater which became famous through Giuseppe Verdi's opera performances and for being the world's largest open-air opera venue.
Verona has so many beautiful and unique places to offer, but I'm going to show you the most important and must-sees.
The city's most famous square, (beside the square in front of the arena) is the Piazza delle Erbe. Here the city's long history as an affluent trading location is revealed in brick and stone. Palaces, merchants' houses, towers and statues stand in dumb, stationery tribute to more than 2 000 years of  business, while visitors sit at cafés and enjoy the view of the madding crowd.
