While you may know Verona as the home of Romeo and Juliet, there is much more to this incredible city in Italy.

There is an ancient Arena.

There are some stunning churches.

You'll find old city walls and vibrant piazzi (town squares).

There are old stately homes with gardens.

And there are streets to wander around and get a bit lost in.

Oh, did I mention the fabulous food and delicious wine?

Verona is definitely worth spending a few days in.
