Chronicles of Verona
Founded by the Celts in 550 BC, Verona has a rich history that spans over two millennia. The city's strategic location on the Adige River made it a prized possession of the Romans, who built many of the iconic landmarks that still stand today, including the Arena di Verona and the Casa di Giulietta. Verona's architectural evolution is a testament to its strategic position at the crossroads of the Roman Empire, with influences from Gothic, Renaissance, and Baroque periods evident in its stunning palaces, churches, and piazzas. The city's cultural identity is deeply rooted in its romantic heritage, with Shakespeare's famous tale of Romeo and Juliet cementing its reputation as a city of love. Today, Verona is a thriving cultural hub, boasting a vibrant arts scene, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and some of the most beautiful architecture in Italy.

Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Due Colonne, here's what to know about choosing the right room.

Top Attractions in Verona
💡 Go early morning around 8am when the fruit sellers set up—far quieter, better photos. The market closes by 1pm.
💡 The free-entry first Sunday is busy—arrive at 10am opening. Otherwise, they do a combo ticket with the cathedral for €8, better bang for your buck.
💡 Best at sunset; cross to the Teatro Romano side and climb the steps for a free view over the river and cathedral. It's only about 30 steps, proper viewpoint.
💡 Skip the courtyard charge by walking through the Scaliger Bridge and ducking into the castle garden entrance, free. Gallery ticket is €6, worth it only if you love medieval sculpture.
💡 Bring water; no café inside. Go weekday morning for emptiness. The maze is tiny but free with entry. If you're near the basilica, it's a 5-min walk uphill.
