border of Switzerland, in the northern Italy
Lake District. The south end of Lake Como is

The town of Como has lovely squares, a historic
center, and nice cafes. Visit the elegant Villa
d'Este, located on the west side of the lake in

much beauty surrounding this lovely area of
Italy that makes it such a popular area for
renting holiday homes, and vacation villa
rentals. Lake Como: “This lake exceeds anything
I ever beheld in beauty..." Percy Shelley.

LAKE MAGGIORE, LAKE LUGANO,
LAKE ORTA: The
northern tip of Lake Maggiore lies in Switzerland with two important towns,
Locarno and Ascona. Lake Lugano is smaller than both Lake Como and Lake
Maggiore, and has a bridge over the lake that connects the towns of Melide and
Bisonne. Most of Lake Lugano is in Switzerland. The main city on the lake is
Lugano, which is a modern, trendy city but still with Italian culture. At the
eastern end of the lake which is all in Italy, Porlezza is the main town sitting
at the extreme east end. Italys' lakes lie in a series of long, deep valleys
running down onto the plains from the Alps, Lake Maggiore perhaps being the most
elegant. Lake Orta, Lago d’Orta only a mile wide, west of Lake Maggiore, is a
quieter area of Italy's lakes.
