The House of Juliet

Even though Shakespeare's Juliet is fictitious and the family she may have been loosely based on didn't live in Verona, that hasn't stopped a tourist attraction from arising. Romantic travelers can visit Juliet's House and stand under Juliet's Balcony at the Casa di Giulietta. You can write your name on her wall or leave a love letter for her blessing. Or those more adventurous (or desperate) lovers are encouraged to touch her statue's breast for good luck.
