As travelers say, once you visit Italy, you will fall in love forever.
Indeed, Italy is like an open-air museum, every corner of which is unique and exciting.
This time we will travel to Verona, which is one of the main tourist attractions in northern Italy through cultural heritage, the annual market, the poetry season, the amphitheater or a number of events. Due to its urban structure and architecture, Verona is an honorary member of the World Heritage List.
There is always a crowd on one of the streets of the beautiful city ...
Of course, the most popular tourist attraction in Verona is Juliet's house (Casa Di Giulietta) located at N23 Via Capello.
From a distance, you notice the fuss of people speaking different languages in the garden - they tell the story of Juliet's love. Love letters are left in the red mailbox or on the wall. But what happens when the wall is covered with letters? This is the topic of our article.
Yes, there is actually a cultural organization in Verona whose employees read letters and respond to authors.
The club, created by a group of artists, revived one of the most famous tragedies of Shakespeare, Romeo and Juliet, from a paper to a beautiful garden, and Juliet became the patron of love and romance.
The club employs more than 50 volunteers as Juliet's secretary. Secretaries read, translate, and reply. The Juliet Club responds to 10,000 to 60,000 love letters a year.
The history of the organization dates back to 1972. From the day the club was founded until today, its members have been reading letters left on the wall, inbox or email, and have unselfishly given love advice.
The club has an official website and can also buy souvenirs (necklace, postcard, small book) there.
It is noteworthy that anyone can apply to the club, one day become a Juliet, read and respond to a letter from a completely unknown person.
The organization has established a special prize called "Dear Juliet". The author of the most beautiful letter is revealed every year.
Hollywood became interested in Juliet's club in 2010. Star Amanda Seyfried plays the lead role in Letters to Juliet. The script tells the story of an American Sophie who finds an unresponded love card in Verona. Sophie decides to respond to the author of the letter years later. The interesting story begins right now. The film prompted many people to travel to the magical Verona.
