Verona is a city and provincial capital in Veneto, Northern Italy. The ancient town and the center of the modern city are in a loop of the Adige River near Lake Garda. Because of this position, the areas saw regular floodings until 1956, when the Mori-Torbole tunnel was constructed, providing 500 cubic meters of discharge from the Adige river to Lake Garda when there was danger of flooding. The tunnel reduced the risk of flooding from once every seventy years to once every two centuries.

I'm not sure if this would help for your project but i was in Verona, Italy a few years ago and it wasn't want i expected. Romeo and Juliet's balcony is not where you would expect. there is a lot of little stores and you turn right down this short hall and its an arched hallway and you walk into this courtyard and there is a balcony to your right that is the balcony and directly across is a souvenir shop :) it was nice though, Italy is a gorgeous place and hope to go back. It is like a cobblestone ground and is still very beautiful (the archway is all covered in graffiti)
