How to reach Verona, the romantic city in Veneto? Let's find out together.
Verona is a city known throughout the world for being the setting for one of William Shakespeare's most moving and beloved tragedies, Romeo and Juliet. Indeed, great attraction for tourists to the beautiful town holds the legendary Juliet's balcony, where lovers can leave a note or phrase that is worth to them as a good luck charm for their romance.
