Theatro Romano, Verona

Theatro Romano, Verona

This place is another wonderful theatre located in Verona. Even if, it was mentioned as Teatro Romano, the translated name is Roman theatre of Verona. When I say about this place, I must emphasise that this is not the Arena of Verona. This place is located outside Piazza bra, closing to Ponte Pietra and river Adige. But I must say, that this place located at a walking distance from the Piazza Bra. The beauty of this theatre has been enhanced since the site is located at the valley of a small his facing to river Adige. In ancient times, a huge wall, which remain up to now, was constructed to protect this place during the flood seasons.
