TWO HOUSEHOLDS, BOTH ALIKE IN DIGNITY
IN FAIR VERONA, WHERE WE LAY OUR SCENE
FROM ANCIENT GRUDGE BREAK TO NEW MUTINY
WHERE CIVIL BLOOD MAKES CIVIL HANDS UNCLEAN. FROM FORTH THE FATAL LOINS OF THESE TWO FOES
A PAIR OF STAR-CROSS’D LOVERS TAKE THEIR LIFE WHOSE MISADVENTURED PITEOUS OVERTHROWS
DO WITH THEIR DEATH BURY THEIR PARENTS’ STRIFE. ― WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE, ROMEO AND JULIET
The Arena. The Roman Amphitheater of Verona
The historic city of Verona was founded in the 1st century BC. It particularly flourished under the rule of the Scaliger family in the 13th and 14th centuries and as part of the Republic of Venice from the 15th to 18th centuries. Verona has preserved a remarkable number of monuments from antiquity, the medieval and Renaissance periods, and represents an outstanding example of a military stronghold…
We visited Verona for a couple of hours. The streets and alleys lead us to Romanesque churches, Gothic towers and Renaissance palaces. That was quick and careless, cause traveling with small kid has it’s own specific aspects. That’s why I need to return to that city to fully enjoy the sightseeing places. <3
