A lovely thing about Verona is that right in the middle of the old town is a mini-Colosseum (erected by Romans, messed up by Theodoric). This one is still a functioning building! Every summer it hosts an opera festival, for instance (sadly, not right now).

@shriramk I saw Aida there in '93 on the night of the pleiades shower
@cigitalgem OMG — memory of a lifetime! Did you see it in the amphitheater?
