You certainly cannot pass by an elegant and majestic building such as the Arca di Cansignorio without becoming fascinated by it. It is one of the most beautiful places in the city. Besides, it is one of the symbols of the city, immortalized by Shakespeare. Its arch was built in the 13th-14th centuries in the Gothic style. It is in fact, a tomb, where they buried the representatives of the Scaliger dynasty who ruled Verona during those times. However the best views of the capital of romance can be seen, if you climb up the tower Torre dei Lamberti. The time of its construction dates back to the 12th century, but despite this, the tower is still the tallest building in the city. Thus, it would not be strange if you become surprised by the unprecedented craftsmanship of the builders and engineers of that time.
Talking about the interesting museums in the city, first of all, it is worth noting the Museo di Castelvecchio. Besides the fact that there are beautiful entertaining exhibits here (frescoes, sculptures, paintings of the 14th-16th centuries), the building is also attractive from an architectural point of view. Especially striking are the views from the interior on the Skaliger’s Bridge, which is beautifully illuminated in the evening. The Il Museo Del Giocattolo will appeal to even the youngest visitors, as hundreds of toys are displayed there. The Museo Canonicale is also architecturally interesting. It is located in the Complesso della Cattedrale-Duomo courtyard. Beautiful exhibits are also represented here, among them, church utensils, and works of sacred art.
