Reviews
Един от начините да се качите на върха и да разгледате Верона от високо, страхотна панорама и впечатляващи гледки.
雖然可以一個人購買纜車票2歐元快速上山，但是我們選擇用走的上山，也不會非常久，同時可以享受路途的景色。一上山後可以看到整個Verona的全部景色，還可以看到城市跟河邊的地形。非常推薦大家來這邊稍微爬個階梯看這遼闊壯觀的景色。
Schöne kleine Anlage vor der Arena. ( Januar 2024 )
A beautiful park area to relax and unwind in
Tried a few different routes, looks like this is locked up with no way to access anymore :(
Sehr schöne Aussicht auf die Stadt.
The Scaliger Tombs are a group of five Gothic tombstones in They house members of the Scaliger family, which ruled Verona from the 13th to the late 14th century. The tombs are located in front of the church of Santa Maria Antica.
Ein wunderschöner Ort im Restauranthof, in dem Opernhäuser stattfinden. Die Plattform ist schön und einfach. Ich empfehle jedem, es zu besuchen, besonders am Nachmittag, wenn die Sonne nicht stark scheint. Das Amphitheater wird Sie mit seinem prächtigen Design in Erstaunen versetzen und ein Spaziergang durch die Tore im Inneren wird Sie in eine andere historische Epoche entführen. Eintrittskarten sind nicht teuer, 10-15 Euro pro Person, und es gibt einen weiteren Sonderpreis für Kinder und Senioren.
A Night to Remember at Verona Arena
Stepping into the Verona Arena is like taking a step back in time. This ancient Roman amphitheater, standing strong since the 1st Century AD, is a sight to see all on its own. It's huge, and you can just feel the history in the air. But when night falls, and Verdi’s Aida begins, it's something else entirely.
Imagine this – hundreds of performers taking the stage in this gigantic, open-air venue. The Arena’s stone walls and the night sky are the backdrop to the epic love story unfolding before your eyes. The music is stirring, filling the entire space, making the experience even more emotional. The costumes, the sets, and the talent of the performers are top-notch, making you feel like you’ve been transported right to ancient Egypt.
Experiencing Aida at the Verona Arena is something you've got to do at least once. It's an amazing combination of history and artistry, and seeing an opera here, under the stars, is something you’ll never forget. It’s a night filled with unbelievable music, powerful performances, and a unique atmosphere that you just can’t get anywhere else. In short, it’s just incredible.

Schöner Zugang für wundervolle Blicke über der Etsch.
The Verona Arena is a true architectural marvel that captures the essence of history and grandeur. This well-preserved Roman amphitheater, crafted from stunning pink and white limestone, leaves visitors in awe with its colossal structure, graceful arches, and tiered seating. What sets it apart is its vibrant use as a venue for live performances, showcasing its legendary acoustics. It's best to purchase tickets online and skip the long queues at the counters. I highly recommend.
Eine der vielleicht schönsten Gebäude an der Piazza della Erbe. Erste Erwähnungen gehen bis in zwölfte Jahrhundert zurück. Der obere Teil wurde als Kornkammer genutzt, im unteren Teil befanden sich offene Geschäfte. Die Familie Mazzanti kaufte 1527 dieses Gebäude. Für die noch heute sichtbare Bemalung war der Künstler Alberto Cavalli verantwotlich.
Стоит уделить время и подняться к замку. С высоты открывается шикарный вид на город и реку!
Ein bemerkenswertes, fantastisches Bauwerk! Ich war überwältigt von diesem Anblick! Ich habe die Arena leider aus Zeitgründen nicht von innen besichtigt. Die Warteschlange war mäßig lang, sicher ist es besser Tickets im voraus zu buchen. Verona ist auf jeden Fall einen Besuch Wert, es gibt so viel schönes zu entdecken!! Auch abseits der Touristischen Sehenswürdigkeiten!!
The tombs are outside of a church - magnificent and intriguing, but there's just a few of them so don't expect anything super special. The entrance was on a basis of donations, and we even got a guide in English.
Very spacious and chill square in the beating centre of the city.
It's while looking at the arena you truly feel like being transported to ancient times. The building is magnificent and awe inspiring. The only "bad" (not truly bad, but for us as visitors) thing was that it was being prepared for an opera performance, which kind of takes the vibe away a bit. But of course, it's amazing it's still being used today and I wouldn't want it any other way. The queues are super long, so it's definitely worth it buying the ticket online or using the Verona card that allows you to skip the line.
Verona ima sve što Roma nema.Onavezno 3 dana, prvi dan grad,dva dana ruksak na leđa i pješke preko rijeke u brda tamo je cijela povjest.Hrana je za preživit ali malo dijete nije loše za tjelo.
Well I guess that's one way of showing off!
Ich fand die Arena wirklich wunderschön und es war ein tolles Erlebnis, sie einmal live zu sehen. Vor allem der Anblick nach Sonnenuntergang war wirklich beeindruckend. Allerdings war ich nicht selbst drinnen um sie mir von innen anzusehen. Nach Angaben von meinem Kollegen hat der Eintritt (ohne Veranstaltung) 10€ gekostet.
Beautiful and ancient town boasting the remains of a Roman amphitheatre reputedly slightly older than the one in Rome. Not to be missed are Juliet's (supposed) balcony and statue. Lovely quaint streets full of shops abound, as do restaurants and bars. Be prepared to do a lot of walking to see all the sights and items of interest in this incredibly historical place.
Wow, this place is older than the Coliseum in Rome. This place also hosts events like the summer opera series. It has cushioned seats in the lower part and then the old step seating up top. It isn't as crowded as it is in Rome. A must visit.
A unique place. History in own house. Epic opera spectacles. Good restaurants around. Attention at ZTL for car drivers. Parking not so cheap. But who cares...
The arena in Verona is one of the best-preserved Roman arenas anywhere. Even the Colliseum in Rome has come down a fair bit. Moreover, in Verona the arena is in the center of the town and there is a very active shopping and dining area full of life and activity. The city is also the setting of two of Shakespeare's plays, the eternal love story Romeo & Juliet and the Two Gentlemen of Verona.
Indeed this place will remind you of the Clouseaum of Roma, Italy. Verona is little Rome, just because of this building. A very beautiful place in the city. If you are travelling to Verona, don't miss out on this beautiful place in the city. The interior of this building is often occupied with concerts stages and opera performances. Always buy the tickets beforehand to avoid any long ques to visit this marvellous place.
Posto un po' affollato e al sole, ma comunque è sempre bello vedere un pezzo della nostra storia.
È facilmente raggiungibile perché per di lì passano veramente tanti bus che vanno in tutta Verona.

Really enjoyed the visit. Booked tickets online in advance, which saved quite a queue on the day. Much is open including some of the inside walkways. Toilets at various places. It was interesting to learn about the history and also to see how it is used today 2000 years later for opera performances. Could sit and reflect for as long as we wished. Definitely the highlight of Verona.
Wzdłuż pierzei Placu Ziół od Volto Barbaro do rogu Corso Sant'Anastasia, rozciąga się budynek znany jako „Case dei Mazzanti” pochodzący z XIV wieku. Górna część budynku należąca do rodziny la Scali, była wykorzystywała jako magazyn zboża. Matteo Mazzanti zlecił Alberto Cavalli z Mantui pomalowanie elewacji budynku od strony placu i Corso. Widoczne obecnie freski zostały niedawno odrestaurowane.
Siamo sempre in una delle Piazza più rappresentative di Verona, Piazza delle Erbe, ed ammiriamo questo gruppo di case finemente decorate/affrescate nel 1500 dal Pittore Alberto Cavalli ed arrivate ai nostri tempi in ottime condizioni, sia pure con qualche restauro effettuato nei secoli dai proprietari che acquistarono queste case non più di proprietà dei Mazzanti.
It's nice, definitely a Veronese Hallmark, and a powerful and valuable attraction - go and see a show if you're in town. (5*)
Deducting 2 stars because the chairs (the metal ones, in the middle height section) are really uncomfortable (they lean forwards and you slide off). It's like the director never tried one. After 4 hours it's quite tough and annoying.

Schöne Aussicht über die Stadt!
To listen Verdi in Verona Arena is unforgettable experience. 15000 people are keeping their breath and it is like you are alone with the music under the stars and the moon... and filling the connection with the ancestors. It is magical! On top, such spectacular work is done with the decors! And they re-build the scene (literally) for each act! It is a must see!
Beautiful location and walk or fenuncular to top of hill overlooking all of Verona.
... a magnificent Fountain in a magnificent Square !
Not sure if it's worthy to visit inside, you can enjoy the beauty of the place even at the center of the piazza
Amazing views, lovely small city with scenic castle and very nice scenery. Lots of restaurants and cafes. Not to busy definitely worth visiting. We also took a swim in the lake and it was very nice. Plenty of parking available mostly paid for 2euro per hr. Beach with pebbles so don’t forget swim shoes. Beautiful place.
Very interesting place to visit while walking through Verona
A quiet place in a heart of Verona - Worth to take a stroll through the city - i really didnt have any expectation for Verona but it turned out to be really beautiful city - good for a one day visiting
Very beautiful, very nice to walk along and for pictures.
So beautiful here, usually quiet so lovely to sit on the steps and chill put for a bit. It's very central so easy to walk to and I don't think you need a long time here either.
A fine civic square in the heart of Verona formed by some wonderful mixed architecture. Nice restaurants too.
Went to the arena on a weekday, it was not that busy at all. I recommend to take the Verona pass for 20€ to skip the queue. The Verona pass is also applicable for the other attractions within Verona.
The Arena is well maintained and the culture of this monument is explained well with pictures and audio information. You are allowed to enter the Arena and sit wherever you want to check the view from different seating classes. When I was there they were preparing the Arena for a Opera in June. So we also got to see some of the settings and backdrops of the opera.

Breathtaking place.
Very interesting and lavish tombs of (probably) very arrogant people. We used our entrance tickets from other museums in the area which allowed us to do so. Would recommend, but not if you have to pay a separate price.
Dobre miejsce by podziwiać zachód słońca. Na górze można kupić drinka lub przynieść własny alkohol. Na górę wjeżdża kolejka za pare euro, można sie wdrapać schodami.
Very cute small fountain 🥰
Super Weg hier hoch und der Ausblick auf Verona ein weiterer Höhepunkt 👍🏽
It is very beautiful and has a renaissance atmosphere. I highly recommend walking and spending time here.
Beautiful wall paintings
This is a bit more interesting than the Ragione since at least there is a decent sight to be seen and taken selfies and enjoy a bit.
Beautiful views
Beautiful piazza in the center of Verona historica. Full of nice italian restaurants and bara. Most recommended place in Verona
Beautiful tower and bridge.
Beautiful! Just out side the colosseum.
Beautiful sunset during our first night in the city.
Really, I felt good in this place. It is the city’s outlet and the main square overlooks the restaurants and the square has this beautiful fountain… Everything is beautiful in Verona. It is a city with an identity that you will not forget because it is difficult to visit cities with a unique identity.
When I was leaving the Piazza sei Signori i was not expecting to stumble across this extraordinary gothic funerary monument from the 14th century standing there out in the street (I learnt a lot reading there 😅, costs 1 euro to enter)
Verona surprised me almost in every corner.

Resti del castello fatto costruire dai Visconti a cavallo dei secoli XIV e XV durante il periodo della breve dominazione su Verona. Fu usato dai Veneziani come polveriera finché non venne distrutto dai francesi prima di cedere la città agli austriaci. All'interno ospita un piccolo parco non molto frequentato.
Ein Ort der Entspannung sind die Bänke rund um Fontana di Plazza Brà. Vor einigen Veranstaltungen in der Arena haben wir hier auf den Beginn gewartet.
Der Brunnen oder von den Einheimischen Zitronenpresse genannt soll die Verbindung Verona mit München (1975 gestiftet) symbolisieren. Als Austausch steht eine Kopie der Julia-Statue im Münchner Rathaus.

Classico esempio di gestione del patrimonio artistico all'Italiana. Un arco romano di 2000 anni che passa quasi inosservato, perché mal valorizzato. Appena dietro, le pareti di vetro a parapetto che danno sulle sponde dell'Adige sono incrinate, mentre le sedute in marmo / pietra dei dintorni sporche e mal tenute. Un peccato
Eine ruhige Insel der Entspannung mitten im Trubel rund um die Arena und Piazza Bra. Einige Bänke rund um den Springbrunnen bieten Erholung. Man kann hier auch gut auf die Öffnung der Arena warten, falls man nicht sein Geld in den zahlreichen Restaurants lassen möchte
Masterpieces. From Piazza dei Signori, passing by the Palazzo del Capitano, we arrive at the place where the church of Santa Maria Antica is located . Immediately there are the graves of the Della Scala family ( Arche Scaligere ). The Scaliger Tombs (or Arche Scaligere) in Verona are a funerary complex built by the Della Scala family, who ruled over the city between the 13th and the 14th century.
It is impressive that in Verona, so a lot of magnificent buildings and masterpieces created. Built in Gothic style, the most outstanding is the beauty of the magnificence grave the Cangrande (1291-1329), the most important and famous member of this aristocratic dynasty. Well worth a visit.

Sono la scenografia della stupenda Piazza Erbe. Case costruite a ridosso (ma anche sopra) al Foro Romano in epoca medioevale. Furono abitate da nobili, tra cui la famiglia Cangrande (sotto il Volto Barbaro è presente una epigrafe che ricorda l'assassino di Mastino I della Scala). Successivamente passarono di proprietà dei Gonzaga che le vendettero alla famiglia Mazzanti, da cui presero il nome. Vennero utilizzate anche come magazzini. Ma la loro particolarità è di essere il più grande esempio di quella che fu una delle peculiarità della Verona del passato: esseŕe chiamata dai visitatori urbs picta, ossia città dipinta, tanti erano i palazzi cittadini abbelliti da facciate affrescate con colori sgargianti. Nel 500 era comune che le case fossero decorate con affreschi, ma a Verona quest'abitudine era talmente diffusa da conquistare il citato soprannome. Gli affreschi furono realizzati da Alberto Cavalli, che fu allievo di Giulio Romano e collaborò con lui alla realizzazione di Palazzo Te a Mantova. Sul retro vi è una ripida e stretta scalinata ed un pozzo con guide in ferro che permettevano di calare il secchio direttamente da casa per raccogliere l'acqua. Purtroppo questa parte risulta poco valorizzata e la manutenzione lascia a desiderare. Diventa un parcheggio di moto e biciclette e un ripostiglio all'aperto degli esercizi commerciali che operano sulla piazza. 4 stelle per questo.
One Must Visit place in Verona
Todo bien. El día jueves 15 de agosto siendo feriado lo cerraron a las 9pm, un señor llego y saco a todos los turistas de manera grosera 😡
A piazza that dates from the Middle Age and is in the historical center of a very interesting city deserves to be seen. Also known as Piazza Dante (after all, there's a statue of the great writer there), it's framed by beautiful buildings and arcades.
Amazing place. Ran into it during heavy rain and was impressed by the ancient style of architecture.
Interesting frescoes on the building walls. Somewhat faded. Must have been beautiful in those days.
Nothing special there are paintings on the walls
UNA PICCOLA PIAZZA MA CON UNA GRANDE STORIA. NEL CUORE DELLA PIAZZA SI TROVA L' ARCO DEI GAVI (antico monumento con oltre 2000 anni), A SINISTRA C' È IL MAESTOSO CASTELVECCHIO, DAL QUALE SI POSSONO SCATTARE BELLISSIME FOTO AL PONTE, FA DA CORNICE IL LUNGADIGE. UNA TAPPA D' OBBLIGO PER I TURISTI.
Arches Scaligers
Verona, Via Santa Maria Antica, 1
The arches of Scaligero, the tombs of the three rulers of Verona from the dynasty ruling there in the 13-14 centuries, are the only one of a kind “suspended” burial, a monument of medieval Gothic. The family coat of arms depicts a staircase (it. Scala), from this word the name of the founder of the family, Mastino della Scala, originated.
Soaring burials, despite the beautiful architectural ensemble, look a bit gloomy ... in my opinion ... Although it is very subjective. In any case, interesting, unusual and informative 😍

Good crowded place. Had an ongoing Christmas market with all sorts of small small shops setup by the locals. Place features the architectural marvels of different era on each sides.
The kings
Excellent example of medieval Italian architecture.
Just a court yard
