Verona, Italy: House of Juliet and Castelvecchio

More info about travel to Verona: https://www.ricksteves.com/europe/italy Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet made Verona, Italy, a popular destination, but a visit to the “House of Juliet” has nothing to do with the fictional star-crossed lovers; all this commotion was started by a clever tour guide back in the ’70s as a way to attract visitors to Verona. The Castelvecchio (“Old Castle”) is a reminder of a real family that ran the city of Verona in medieval times: the Scaligeri.
