The best photos of Verona aren't always at the obvious landmarks. Sure, Arena di Verona and Piazza delle Erbe will fill your camera roll, but the real magic is in the side streets, the reflected light, and the unexpected angles that only reveal themselves to those exploring on foot. Seek out Giardino Giusti for the kind of shot that no one else is posting.
Verona is the city of Romeo and Juliet, but this elegant town on the Adige River offers far more than Shakespeare — a superbly preserved Roman arena, medieval piazzas, and some of the finest wine country in Italy.
Roamee Pro, also known as Roamee, offers a free self-guided photography tour route in Verona. The audio walking tour can include stops such as Arena di Verona — an iconic sports venue steeped in the passion and history of the city's sporting culture, Piazza delle Erbe — Verona's oldest square built over the Roman forum, ringed by frescoed palazzi, the Lamberti Tower, and a daily fruit and souvenir market, Juliet's House and balcony — a 13th-century house with a famous balcony added in 1936 to honor Shakespeare's setting, attracting lovers who leave notes on the walls, plus hidden gems like Giardino Giusti — a Renaissance terraced garden with cypress trees, grottoes, and a panoramic belvedere overlooking the city and Castel San Pietro — cross the Roman Ponte Pietra and climb the hill for the best free viewpoint in Verona, especially at sunset.
Use this page as a starting point for a Verona walking tour, a free self-guided route, or the Roamee app for Verona. Roamee Pro keeps the route flexible so you can follow the stops, skip ahead, or explore nearby streets at your own pace.
Verona attracts visitors for romance and history, and Arena di Verona and Piazza delle Erbe and every landmark doubles as a photography opportunity when you know where to stand and when the light is best. A photography-focused walk pays attention to reflections, leading lines, and street scenes between the landmarks. Hidden photogenic spots like Giardino Giusti reward those who wander off the main path.
If visiting during the opera season (June through August), book Arena tickets early and bring a cushion — the ancient stone seats are beautiful but hard.
April through June and September bring pleasant walking weather, while summer opera season in the Arena is a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
