The tragic story of Romeo and Juliet, a legend of which nobody can tell if the two unlucky lovers of Verona ever lived. Nevertheless, not unlike many other legends, there are abundant elements of the story that have references to real places and historical facts of Verona. For example, it is many years now since visitors of Juliet's house first started writing their names and love phrases on the entrance walls of this famous place of Verona. So, what will you write on Juliet's wall?
