Positano vs. Capri — Which Is Best for Your Italy Trip?

The museum houses ancient sculptures of remarkable quality. It also offers a unique panoramic view of the city. An absolute must-see.

Paying the price of a ticket to visit the theater only to find that everything is under construction, including the construction of a stage with platforms. Verona City Council doesn't respect historical heritage. The museum is very interesting. If you want to visit the museum is ok.

This is a nice Roman amphitheater that was built in the 1st century BC. It has is a modern stage built up with seating which covers a lot of the ancient amphitheater as it is still in use for plays, operas, concerts. The museum itself is located in a covenant and church at the top. The steps can be quite steep, but alternatively there is a lift to the side. There are artifacts to see both indoors and out from the roman era. The views get better the higher you go with views over the River Adige and the city.

This place is a must visit! Got the tickets at the entrance. The views from here are absolutely stunning. In addition to the amazing things to see in the place, you also get to see great views of verona the higher you go! The museum itself requires a bit of steps to go up. However there is an elevator available to use as well. Cant recommend this place enough!

This for me was the highlight of the day ❤️ (after the arena and a few churches). I loved how well thought and prepared for visiting it is! The Teatro is very beautiful to see, great view of the city, but the museum is amazing!!! Totally recommend!

I arrived about 20 minutes before closing time, so it was a very rushed visit but well worth it just to see the Roman theatre. It's only €4.50 to enter. Staff are helpful and courteous. Lots of artifacts to see both indoors and outdoors. And the views from there of the River Adige and the city are really beautiful.

A beautiful place where you can get to know the Roman part of Verona's history better. It can be a bit physically challenging for some, since you need to climb some stairs (there's an elevator also though) to reach the museum above the Roman theatre, but it's do worth it! The museum itself is located in s former convent which gives it even more of a magical effect. I visited in the late afternoon, there was no queue.
