Verona is a romantic city in Veneto, northern Italy, on the Adige River.
It is the third largest in northeast Italy. The city has been awarded UNESCO World Heritage Site. Three of Shakespeare’s plays are set in Verona: Romeo and Juliet, The Two Gentlemen of Verona, and The Taming of the Shrew.
The hills of the Valpolicella region outside the historic city of Verona are the homeland of Amarone, one of Italy’s greatest red wines.
