To those who really believe that Romeo and Juliet walked the streets of Verona here is the prologue of the novel verses reality. “Two households, both alike in dignity, In fair Verona, where we lay our scene, From ancient grudge break to new mutiny, Where civil blood makes civil hands unclean.” This is true, these two families (Montecchi , Cappelletti) truly existed in Verona and were known in history as being rival. Their buildings, private cemeteries were found. “From forth the fatal loins of these two foes A pair of star-cross'd lovers take their life;” This is not true, but only in Shakespeare’s imagination, not even the slightest piece of evidence was ever found that this pair of star-crossed lovers (Romeo and Juliet) truly existed in Verona and certainly they were never connected to the above-mentioned families, but it is so easy to believe it because such a great novel is attached to existing buildings in Verona and therefore promotes tourism. I also believed it at first. Tourism eventually decided to make “Juliet’s coffin” in red. By the way, how can anyone take such an acute novelist as William Shakespeare too seriously?
contrived tourist trap much like hallmark holidays. The street leading to the courtyard is lined with inauthentic hyper-capitalist shops. Go off the beaten path in this town for more exciting finds.
Wow love your house. Big like

Yes! It's cool that Dante wrote about the families in the Divine Comedy too. Purgatory, Canto VI :)
Shakespeare was a playwright not a novelist.

I like how people are giving Shakespeare all the credit, the man stole the story and slightly changed the name
Then who's the true guy
From whom? I'm really interested.
Yep, totally ripped it off!
