To visit
Bellagio
The lake and his villas
Sumptuous villas with big gardens and great attention to detail enrich the Como area and offer the testimony of the prestige that for centuries the Como’s Lake has always been becoming a must for the Grand Tour with European nobles and literary men. The tourist discovering the Lake can’t miss to visit these unique places. Gardens, during the spring, bloom with species of plants from all over the world and some rooms preserve unique artistic treasures. Do not forget, however, there are also some villas that enrich Lecco and Lower Comasca. Jewels in the green area became the ideal residence location for some of the most important families in Italy. Some of these houses are still inhabited by the present owners, while others have been rehabilitated to new usePian di Spagna nature reserve
From Lake to the Brianza passing by mountain valleys, the area is characterized by parks and by protected nature reserves rich in vegetation and inhabited by numerous species of animals. Not only ideal destinations for an holiday in contact with nature, but also for trekking lovers who want to go for long walks and for schools thanks to the numerous proposals for educational tourism. The most interesting areas include regional parks such as the Parco Pineta and the Spina Verde Park, the Parco Lambro Valley, the Adda Nord Park, the Parco Monte Barro and Curone Park, in the Brianza’s hills and the Northern Grigna Park, in the heart of Valsassina. In addition to the regional parks, however, we can’t mention the nature reserves, authentic Como’s Lake pearl characterized by a great variety of flora and fauna. One such organization is the reserve of Pian di Spagna which dominates the Upper Lake, to which are added small areas but not least as nice as the one at Lake Sartirana and reserve Malascarpa
Fuentes and Motecchio fort
Thanks to its “border” position the Lake has been, over the centuries, a very strategic military point. There are a lot of examples of this role thanks to the presence of several castles and forts dating back to different periods, from the Middle Ages up to the beginning of '900 with the two world wars. Most were built in difficult places, directly behind the lake where is often not easily accessible, but they offering unique landscape’s views and an atmosphere that give a strong suggestion as to imagine the territory historic events in the course of history.
Bellagio, known as the " Como Lake’s pearl" is located at the end
of the promontory which divides into two branches the lake. This
enchanting location, the superb villas and small houses one
against the other, the lush vegetation and mild climate made it a
favorite destination for famous men, like Pliny the Younger,
Stendhal, Parini, Manzoni, Toscanini, Liszt.
During the nineteenth century Bellagio has become one of the
most famous tourist centers. The country is divided into twenty-
two villages that offer views always different.
The most famous is “Borgo”, which develops around harbor piers
with stairs, squares, shops and craft shops where
manufacturers show their art to the tourist
