Our Trip To Italy - Part 1 - Verona

Today I want to show some pics I took during our trip to Italy. There are LOTS of pics so I will divide them in 3 posts. This one will be about our first stop: VERONA.


A beautiful city in the north of Italy where I spent most of my youth. We stayed there for 4 days to visit my cousins, uncles and aunts. Time goes by fast when you have fun, and it sure did! But we were able to go out for a few hours to take some pics before leaving.



This is what it looks like when you enter the "heart" of Verona.


"Piazza Bra", with all the restaurants and "bars" along the street where people seated outside can see...


the "Arena" (now inside they host concerts and the Lyric Opera)



Pass the Arena you will enter "Via Mazzini", a street full off high brand shops




Here we made a quick stop at this amazing "gelateria"!! They have the best ice cream in town!



At the end of Via Mazzini you will find on your left side "Piazza delle Erbe" with a nice market place full of souvenirs.

And on your right side "Via Cappello", where you can find more shopping and the famous house of Juliette


this is the entrance


the famous "balcony"


And a view of the inside of the entrance. The walls are covered with graffiti and writings of people that goes to visit the house.

And here I am!!! Next time I'll post pictures of Rimini.

ARRIVEDERCI for now!!
