The Verona Arena is a Roman amphitheater located in the historic center of Verona, an icon of the Venetian city together with the figures of Romeo and Juliet.
It is one of the large buildings that have characterized Roman architecture and one of the ancient amphitheaters that has come to us with the best degree of conservation, thanks to the systematic restorations carried out since the sixteenth century; precisely for this reason, despite the numerous transformations it has undergone, it allows the visitor to easily understand the structure of this kind of buildings, rigorously subject to the function for which they were intended but nevertheless endowed with essential beauty.
In the summer season it hosts the famous Areniano opera festival, whose seasons have taken place continuously since 1913, while in the spring and autumn it is a stop for many international singers and musicians.
The building has a height of 31m and below you can see the cross-section from the side with the wing showing the stairs and passages, and a map of the amphitheater, with the sewers marked.
