The entrance to this pedestrian-only shopping district is the Porta Borsari, part of the old Roman walls. Crossing under the bleached marble, you will find yourself in a narrow street lined with a variety of shops.
There are plenty of pricy boutiques for clothing and shoe/leather goods. As Via Mazzini is where to find the brands like Versace, Gucci and Benetton, Borsari has shops that aren't household names, at least outside of the Veneto region.
Many gourmet shops sell wine, pastas and canned goods from the Valpollicella wine region and other local food producers. These shops are a delight to browse through and are great places to pick up edible gifts and souvenirs. Also be sure to stop in either of the two pasticceria along the right side of the street as you meander towards Piazza dell'Erbe. There you can buy Panatone, the golden Christmas cake of Verona and other tempting baked goods. You should pick up a variety of the mouthwatering cookies available for purchase by the etto (100 grams), including the famous baci di Romeo and baci di Guilietta (Romeo’s and Juiliet’s kisses.)
Corso Porta Borsari becomes Corso Sant'Anastasia after Piazza dell'Erbe. It continues to provide great shopping options, such as a quirky cooking/tableware store, and a shop that sells high-end cutlery and pocketknifes. There are also some expensive antique and art shops that merit window shopping.
All along the street, keep your eye out for interesting architectural details, like recycled Roman monuments built into the walls.
