Roman Verona, 50
Verona in 50 sits as a compact Roman colonia on a grid of cardines and decumani, its forum at the future Piazza Erbe and an amphitheatre newly finished outside the city. The walk moves from the city’s river crossings and gates through markets, workshops and public colonnades to the theatre on the hill and final views over the Adige bend.
36 scenes — 22 streets, squares and views, 14 interiors to step inside. Planned from the Wikipedia record of Verona as it stood in AD 50 (“Verona”).
