The Arena
This arena is the second biggest (behind Rome's) in Italy. There is room for 22,000 spectators and now, as you can see, opera's and shows are performed here. Of course, Gladiator fights took place here in Roman Empire times.
Bridges In Verona
The Adige River runs from the Alps right through the city. It was a very overcast day and Alps themselves were not very visible except for the foothills.

Piazza del Duomo
This pretty much what the city revolves around. It includes all the structures I have listed below. Here are a few pictures of the actual open square.
Vittorio Emanuele Arcade (Galleria)
Huge open-air shopping gallery with restaurants and high fashion stores such as Prada, Gucci and Louis Vuitton.
Duomo (The Cathedral)
A shot from day and night. The church is the centerpiece of the square and began being built in 1387. As you can see, it is still under renovation (as it was two years ago when I visited).
Inside The Cathedral
These pictures didnt turn out great and they really dont portray how massive the inside is.
Atop The Cathedral
Went to the top and here are some pictures of the gothic structure and detail. It is pretty impressive although these pictures are a fragment of the detail.
