We visit some impressive sights, including the Piazza delle Erbe, one of the most beautiful squares in Italy, before finally ending the evening at a medieval castle. And of course, Barthi has some insider tips for us: What’s the tradition behind the carnival in Verona? What are “vini D.O.C.”? And why is there a giant bone hanging in the middle of the city?

There’s so much to discover! What does a “caffè leccese” taste like? How is the “festa di Sant'Oronzo” celebrated? And what does it have to do with the “living room of the city”?
