Falling in Love with Verona: An amazing experience!
Do You Think Verona Is Just About Romeo and Juliet?
Everyone knows that Verona is the home to the most famous love story ever told, however, despite the typical tourist attraction to Juliet's balcony and Romeo's home, don’t let this fact blind you to everything else the city has to offer. The historic city centre of Verona is famously said to have more Roman ruins than any other Italian city, beside Rome, furthermore Verona was made a UNESCO World Heritage Site not just because of the excellent condition of its Roman architecture but because it is also crammed with medieval buildings, Renaissance art and so many cultural treasures too. Verona has so much to offer and it is really a taste of Italy at it's finest, which can only mean that it has to be a top city that we all must visit.
It is very easy to reach Verona, located halfway between Venice and Milan it is a major transport hub for rail travel throughout the country, it has got an international airport and it is surronded by important highways.
