Verona was made to the colony by Roman abt 2000 years ago. Bcz Verona is convenient for the Alps excess. Also it is famous for the town where Juliet's house is. Capret of Juliet's family name comes from "Chapeau" in French.

VERONA
There is a fossil of the ammonite when often seeing though the special product here is used also for the stairs or the floor by a pink marble. I heard that the town in an ancient city is still under this town.
When the woman touches the right arm of the bronze statue of Julietta who exists in the Julietta family built in the 13th century, it is given to a new meeting. In case of men, nobody knows why but, they touched a right chest, only the part was selfishly irradiative gold.

 Thanks for telling me about the updates. Actually it's not so hard to get opera tickets, because there are about eighteen thousand seats (more or less). I went to three operas there last summer & had a fine time.
