Ponte Pietra is Verona’s oldest bridge, built by the Romans and still standing—well, mostly. Parts of it were rebuilt after WWII, but you can still see the original stonework. The bridge crosses the Adige River near the Roman theatre and offers one of the best views back toward the old town, especially at sunset.

The Basilica of San Zeno is one of Verona’s key medieval landmarks, and a favourite for many locals. The church you see now was rebuilt in the 12th century after an earthquake, but it sits on a much older site from the 5th century. Inside, don’t miss the bronze doors—covered in strange and detailed scenes—and the altarpiece by Mantegna, one of the best in town.

Navagio Beach is the defining landmark of Zakynthos. Located on the island's northwestern coast, its dramatic cove is known for the wreck of a freightliner that ran aground in 1983, an event which gave the beach its name — Navagio, Greek for 'shipwreck'. Before this maritime mishap, the beach was known as Agios Georgios. There are two ways to appreciate this miracle of nature. To swim in the turquoise waters and approach the rusty shell of MV Panagiotis, you must travel by boat. For a panoramic birds-eye view, travel by car to a viewing platform high up in the white cliffs.
