Bus from Verona to Kragujevac

Verona is a city on the Adige river in Veneto, Italy, with approximately 265,000 inhabitants and one of the seven provincial capitals of the region. It is the second largest city municipality in the region and the third largest in northeast Italy.

The precise details of Verona's early history remain a mystery. One theory is it was a city of the Euganei, who were obliged to give it up to the Cenomani (550 BC). With the conquest of the Valley of the Po the Veronese territory became Roman (about 300 BC). Verona became a Roman colonia in 89 BC, and then a municipium in 49 BC when its citizens were ascribed to the Roman tribe Poblilia or Publicia.

Because of the value and importance of its many historical buildings, Verona has been named a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Verona preserved many ancient Roman monuments, no longer in use, in the early Middle Ages, but much of this and much of its early medieval edifices were destroyed or heavily damaged by the earthquake of 3 January 1117, which led to a massive Romanesque rebuilding. The Carolingian period Versus de Verona contains an important description of Verona in the early medieval era.

Three of Shakespeare's plays are set in Verona: Romeo and Juliet, The Two Gentlemen of Verona, and The Taming of the Shrew. It is unknown if Shakespeare ever visited Verona or Italy at all, but his plays have lured many visitors to Verona and surrounding cities many times over.

With the city population of 179,417 according to the census in 2011, Kragujevac is the fourth largest town in Serbia and administrative center of the Šumadija District, located about 120 kilometers south of Belgrade. Kragujevac is a significant economic, cultural, educational and health center of Šumadija, Pomoravlje, and the neighboring regions.

By 1990, Kragujevac was the fifth most developed city in Yugoslavia immediately after Slovenian towns. At the beginning of the 1990s, the city became one of the poorest cities in Serbia. Today, Kragujevac is again one of the strongest administrative, cultural, financial, industrial and political centers in Serbia.

Thanks to rail and road transport, Kragujevac is connected with Belgrade, Nis, Kraljevo, Cacak and other cities.

Intercity and urban transport in the town of Kragujevac is currently carried out by two companies: "Lasta" from Belgrade and "Vulović-transport" from Rekovac. There are 24 regular and permanent public transport lines, and one seasonal lines that goes to Lake Sumarice.
