The Veneto is one of the prettiest regions of Italy that will appeal in particular to lovers of nature, history and glamorous locations. It's capital Venice needs little introduction but is one of four different cities in the region listed as UNESCO World Heritage Sites.
One of those cities listed by UNESCO is the ancient city of Verona which particularly flourished during medieval times and then the Renaissance. The Verona Arena can be likened to a mini-Colosseum but the big difference is Verona's ancient structure is still used to this day for evening concerts and other events. |
