Piazza  Bra​

Latest update: 26 February 2022
Home to one of the most famous Roman monuments in Italy in one of the country's most beautiful cities, Piazza Bra in Verona combines a sense of history with aesthetic charm. 

​The Piazza has something of an irregular shape but is dominated on its eastern side by the magnificent Verona Arena. During the summers, the Arena hosts evocative outdoor operatic events. 
From the top row of the ancient stadium you can gaze down ​on to the pretty Piazza Bra below with its rows of colourful buildings and canopied restaurants on one side, and the relaxing park area opposite them which provides some welcome areas of shade from the sun.
