Castelvecchio is a castle in the city of Verona, Italy. It was built by the Scaligeri dynasty that ruled the city from 1308-1387 and now houses a museum. It’s included in the UNESCO World Heritage listing for the city of Verona. We walked through the castle before getting picked up across the street for our Valpolicella wine tour.
Verona has a good selection of restaurants to choose from. We had some delicious meals there. The only problem is that it’s a very touristy city which means there are restaurants geared towards tourists. This means higher prices and lower quality food.
Verona is synonymous with Romeo and Juliet, and this northern Italian city is a great getaway for both romantics and history lovers. A UNESCO World Heritage site, Verona is rich in Roman ruins as well as buildings from the Middle Ages and Renaissance.
