Type in a word or phrase to search, you can also type in Article ID's separated by commas:

Verona (Italian pronunciation&_160;[ve'ro(?)na]) is a city in Veneto, northern Italy, one of the seven provincial capitals in the region. It is one of the main tourist destinations in north-eastern Italy, thanks to its artistic heritage, several annual fairs, shows and operas, such as the lyrical season in the Arena, the ancient amphitheatre built by the Romans.

Verona owes its historical and economical importance to its geographical location, in a loop of the Adige River near Lake Garda. Because of this position, the areas saw regular floodings until 1956, when the Mori-Torbole tunnel was constructed, providing 500 cubic meters of discharge from the Adige river to Lake Garda when there was danger of flooding. The tunnel reduced the risk of flooding from once every seventy years to once every two centuries.

Verona, or Veronia, was a city of the Euganei, who were obliged to cede it to the Cenomani (550 BC). With the conquest of the Valley of the Po the Veronese territory became Roman (about 300 BC). Verona became a Roman colonia in 89 BC, and then a municipium in 49 BC; Verona had the franchise in 59.

The city derived importance from being at the intersection of many roads. Stilicho defeated Alaric and his Visigoths here in 403. But with the taking of Verona (489 AD) the Gothic domination of Italy began; Theodoric built his palace there, and in Germanic legend the name of Verona is linked with his. This city remained in the power of the Goths all through the Gothic War (535–552), with the exception of a single day in 541, when an Armenian officer effected an entrance. Dissensions which arose among the Byzantine generals in regard to booty enabled the Goths to regain possession. In 552 Valerian vainly endeavoured to gain an entrance, and only the complete overthrow of the Goths brought about its surrender.

14. Marilleva, Italy: Two Resorts of Equal Pleasure
September 29, 2008

The Marilleva ski resort should actually be called Marilleva ski resorts (plural). This is because there are two parts to Marilleva: Marilleva 900 and Marilleva 1400. The latter rests higher at an altitude of 1400 meters in the Val di Sole. If you were to draw a line 250 km from Milan and 70 km from Trento and 170 km from Verona, you could plot the resort's location on the map in northeast Italy. From Marilleva 1400, you'll have more ski access than the lower Marilleva 900 resort. The Madonna di Campiglio and Folgardia cableways are close by in the upper Marilleva. Because of its access t...

July 11, 2008

Generally, we live in a house having limited space. When a guest visits you to stay for a couple of days, it becomes a problem to provide your guest with a comfortable bed to sleep.
