Let’s see and talk about Verona from a different perspective! For centuries, the Adige river allowed the transport of goods from the Alps to the Adriatic sea, the city has always lived with the river and on the river until the construction of the walls in the late nineteenth century.
There were many professions related to water that made the city prosper for centuries, the floating mills characterized the landscape on the river, the “regaste”, the draining machines, the local rafts, the markets, fishing economy, churches and monasteries built near the river, the ancient and modern bridges: let yourself be enveloped by an unforgettable experience in contact with water.
