It was during the spring that I had the opportunity to travel to Verona. From an arena to an outdoor market there are lots of interesting places. In addition there is the possibility of leaving a letter for Juliet that just might get a response. And of course visiting her balcony is a must. These are some of my favorite scenes from Verona.

Where is Juliet?
Some letters…
A must-see landmark
Here is a panoramic view of the city.

He’s doing “Two gentlemen of Verona”? (the guy with the statue)
I’m sure you’re right! I don’t know why I didn’t think of that… :)
i love the balcony .. if i’m there, you’ll find me in the market.. nice post :)
Thanks! The market was great and it was a popular place to stop and browse… :)
Lucky you, I was there 2 weeks ago and it was either raining, or snowing, but definitelly no sun …
Great shots you have :-)
Thanks and sorry about the weather when you were there – when the sun is out it’s so lovely… :)
Looks gorgeous. Would love to visit there sometime.
It’s a charming place and very nice to visit. I hope you get the chance to go there!
If I could only go to one city in Italy, I don’t think I could ever choose which one to visit. Very pretty!
I think it would be really difficult to pick one place. But Verona would be a definite possibility!
I’m beginning to think that after our trip to Europe this summer, I’ll have to start planning a trip just around Italy – so many beautiful cities!
I think it’s so exciting to plan trips (especially to Italy)! You get to do a lot of daydreaming and that’s part of the fun… :)
I am all about the daydreaming :) Even as I am a little burnt out on the booking hotels/flights/etc for our 2 week mother/daughter trip to Europe (covering 8 cities in 6 countries), I can’t help but daydream about wandering the cities of Paris or Venice or Amsterdam!
I hope you have a wonderful trip! All the preparation pays off when you finally get there… :)
Would love to go there sometime! That balcony is gorgeous!
Verona is a lovely place and it’s great to visit there. The balcony is an amazing sight!
Beautiful photos. Every single one makes me want to explore further, but the shot of the balcony is positively intriguing!
I’m so glad you liked the pictures! The balcony was simply charming and Verona was delightful to visit :)
What a Beautiful, Romantic City to Explore – loving your captures – thanks for sharing! Happy Tuesday:)
Thank you Renee! It was a marvelous place and I’m glad to share these pictures :)
So much history! Fascinating place to visit.
I agree with that – Verona is a fantastic place!
Love Verona :) These are beautiful scenes!
Verona was so full of lovely places and scenes – I really enjoyed being there!
Love the panorama. That market looked like a nice place to visit, caught my attention! The stonework and masonry really draw me in.
The panorama helps provide an overview of the city, and when you walk around it’s fun to find places like the market too!
What a wonderful place to just soak in view. All sights and sounds must be amazing! I love the photo of the outdoor market. I would be in heaven. :-)
It was a delightful city to explore and see all these wonderful sights – I thought the market was extra special!
Love Verona. Watching a concert under the stars in the Roman arena that date from the 1st Century was pure magic! Great photos!
What an outstanding experience that must have been! And thank you, I’m glad you liked them :)
Never knew Verona to be so picturesque! Will have to think about it as a destination in the future, thanks for sharing!
I thought it was exceptionally lovely! You’re welcome, and Verona is definitely worth a visit :)
Meg, quick question – how did you get those pop-up captions on your photos?
When you upload a photo there is a list of options on the right hand side. The first says Title, and underneath it says Caption. That’s where you can type in a caption and save it along with the picture. Hopefully that will work for you!
It must have something to do with your template because whenever I’ve added captions that way, they just appear in a margin below my picture. In this post, yours are invisible but pop up when I run my mouse over the photo, which I like much better. Thanks anyway!
It looks like it might be standard with a photo gallery but not for individual pictures. Sorry it didn’t work…
This place is on my list of ‘must visit’. Love your photos.
Thanks Darlene! You’ve made a good choice by including Verona on your list – it’s wonderful :)
What no gelato?! Verona looks like a fascinating place, and aerial views of Italian cities always look so pleasing, perhaps due to the roof tiles.
I did have some gelato there but I ate it too fast to get a picture! You’re right about how charming the panoramic views are too :)
Verona is somewhere I would love to visit . One day, hopefully! As always lovely images.
Thank you! Verona is a delightful place to visit and I hope you get to go there soon… :)
Heehee! I love the idea of writing to Juliet, and even better is getting a response? That’s exciting! Amazing photos as always!
Thanks, and I’d really like to know what kind of advice she would offer!
Ooh just check out that balcony – it’s amazing!!
It was really very beautiful – perfect for Juliet!
I haven’t been to Verona but it looks fantastic. Must check it out next time.
Verona is definitely worth seeing – I think you’d enjoy visiting there!
Verona is going on the list for our next trip to Italy, looks like a lovely place to visit and who doesn’t love the story of Romeo and Juliet :-)
It is so easy to walk there and see everything! I know you’d like it and it’s not far from Venice… :)
