Casa di Giulietta
Just off Via Giuseppe Mazzini, central Verona's main shopping street, is the Casa di Giulietta. Never mind that Romeo and Juliet were fictional characters with no resemblance to Veronese nobility, and that there’s hardly room for two on the narrow stone balcony. Romantics flock to this 14th century house to add their lovelorn pleas to the graffiti on the courtyard causeway and rub the right breast of the bronze statue of Juliet for better luck next time.

Juliet's House
Romeo and Juliet may have been fictional, but at Juliet's House (Casa di Giulietta) you can swoon beneath what popular myth says was her balcony or, if in need of a new lover, approach a bronze statue of Juliet and rub her right breast for good luck. Others have made their eternal mark by adding to the scribbled love graffiti on the courtyard walls.
