We left our new favorite place and took a side street to Padova so that we could pass by the famous Palladian Villas, as we drove saw about eight villas. We knew of the first one, which is show in the first photo below, but it was closed that day so we didnt get to see it any closer that this.
This was another Palladian Villa along the road we took to Padova, then from Padova we took the autostrada to Verona.
Verona, the city of love, is a beautiful city. At least the historical center is very beautiful.
This is the arena of Verona
Palazzo Della Ragione and the stairs shown are called Scala Della Ragione
Chiesa Santa Maria Antica
Along the river.
Chiesa di Sant'Anastasia
Piazza delle Erbe
Me standing in front of Giuliette's house. Its a fake, they used it in a movie, and now it is famous!
You must walk though this tunnel to get to the entrance of the palazzo and to see Giuliette's balconey. All the graffiti on the walls of the tunnel are actually love notes, hearts and names of couples. Pretty amazing.
So, we did it too. but so tiny it gets lost in the mess.
Our little heart is in the center... I bet you can't see it! Even the gate was covered!
Our trip in Verona was cut a little short due to rain, but we walked around most of the historical center and really enjoyed what we got to see.
