Verona neighborhoods
The city center of Verona originated where the Adige River divides into branches. The undisputed majority of all attractions in the city are located on the right bank. Finding the city center is very simple: from the five entrance gates, immense avenues will lead you directly to Old Verona.
The historical center can rightfully be called Bra Square. The name of the square in translation means space and this name was chosen for a reason since this square is actually the largest and most spacious in the city.
Verona city center is decorated with a fabulously wonderful garden with a fountain in the form of the Alps. On it are carved the coats of arms of Verona and Munich, a monument to Victor Emmanuel II. Along the entire perimeter, it was as if the palaces of the richest families of the time were lined up — the Gra Guardia Palace and the Gran Guardia Nuova Palace. A terrace with many cafes and pastry shops stretches along with these beautiful buildings. This place is a favorite among residents of the city for evening walks and dates.
And in front of the ensemble of the square, the Portoni della Bra (arches) are conveniently located, which were built on the site of the ancient gate and from those very boulders.
