In my opinion Verona is the most beautiful and interesting city in all of Italy. Especially if you are a stone lover like myself. The stone and marble work inside the city is exquisite. There is so much variation in colors, design, and textures.

Recently, I went on a trip back to visit this magnificent place. Follow me on my journey below to gain some inspiration for your next trip or when designing your space.

The Piazza Delle Erbe

One of the most notable sites is surrounded by palaces, statues, towers, frescos, and market stalls. It’s also just a step away from one of the most famous balconies in the world. I could sit in this location all day, drink Aperitif’s and never get bored.

The Arena

Built as an amphitheater dating back to the 1st century. It housed gladiatorial contests and other bloody sports for the amusement of the populous. It’s a sight to behold and worth a visit when dropping by.

Bridges of Verona

Situated on the river Adige which takes a loop around the old city and then continues on its way to the Adriatic Sea. The bridges of Verona link the old parts of the city to the newer parts, moving upwards into the adjacent hillsides and into the countryside’s.

Entryways of Verona

The detail of the stonework on the doors, windows, balconies within the city is incredible. Each one, unique and different from the other in both designs and the type of stone used.
