Piazza Bra
AttractionVerona & Lake GardaAbout 1 hour
Verona's largest square, and the Roman arena stands on it — a first-century amphitheatre still in use, which in summer means opera performed to fifteen thousand people under the open sky. Cushion hire and a cheap stone step are part of the experience. By day the arena can be walked into; by night the square is where the city eats.
