Once the Roman forum, this square has always been at the centre of local life. It’s still busy, surrounded by old buildings, cafés, and market stalls selling souvenirs and snacks. A good place to pause and take in the mix of history and noise, especially if you grab a cup of coffee and just watch the flow.

Purana Quila (Old Fort), a massive fortress with three gateways, is located on the ancient part of the city and it allegedly stands on the site of the legendary city of Indraprastha, mentioned in the Mahabharata Hindu text. The fort was completed by the ruler Sher Shah in the mid-16th century.

In the city's hustle lies The Garden of Five Senses, a treasure of over 20 acres where tranquillity and serenity reign. The garden was designed to awaken the five senses with its indescribable beauty and breathtaking attractions. At the Garden of Five Senses you will find a replica of the Mexican Mayan Labná Arc, unique sculptures of children praying, stone crafted elephant troop, well-lit fountains, and more. Cultural festivals, including the Dandiya festivals, the Garden Tourism Festival, food festivals, and more are held here around the year.

A quiet spot just outside the city centre, Giusti Garden dates back to the late 1500s and was once part of a private villa owned by Count Agostino Giusti. Mozart and Goethe passed through here, but now it’s mostly a peaceful place to wander. Tall cypress trees, statues, and views over Verona if you climb to the top. There’s also a small hedge maze—local legend says if a couple finds each other inside, they’re meant to stay together.
