The House of Juliet, Casa di Giulietta, Verona


In Verona, a house claiming to be the Capulets' has been turned into a tourist attraction. It features the balcony, and in the small courtyard, a bronze statue of Juliet. It is one of the most visited sites in the town. The metal of its chest is worn bare due to a legend that if a person strokes the right breast of the statue, that person will have good fortune. It is also a tradition to put small love letters on the walls (which is done by the thousands each year).
