Famous balcony at the Juliet's House, tourist attraction in Verona, Italy

---

Verona, Italy – July 18, 2013: Famous balcony at the Juliet's House in Verona (northern Italy), one of the most popular attractions in the town, widely believed to be the place of William Shakespeare's love tragedy Romeo and Juliet. The Juliet's House (Casa di Giulietta), allegedly the house of Juliet's family Capuletas, was turned into a tourist attraction in the 20th century. Although the building itself dates back to the 13th century, the balcony was added in 1936. Despite the lack of any strong evidence linking the place with the Shakespeare's story and in all likelihood tragedy's fictional origin, the house is still the most visited tourist destination in Verona.
