SUBSCRIBE TO OUR CHANNEL FOR MORE VIDEOS: Lake Lugano is south of the Alps in both Switzerland and Italy, along with its neighbouring lakes Maggiore (also half in Switzerland), Como and Garda, form the region commonly known as the Italian Lakes. Lugano was once part of Milan. It was taken by the Swiss Confederation in the 16th century. At the heart of the city is the old town, with colonaded and cobbled streets, 17th and 18th century buildings, the Piazza della Riforma and the Cattedrale di an Lorenzo, or Cathedral of Saint Lawrence. Parks and garden walkways line Lake Lugano and are some of the best places to see. The Parco Ciani and Villa Ciani are east of the old town, between it and the lido. West of the city is Monte San Salvatore, 912m and offering sweeping vistas of the lake. A funicular takes you up. East of Lugano, villages cling to the rock and line the lake shore. The Seniero di Gardina is a beautiful garden path between the villages of Castagnola and Gandria. It is one of the best places to walk near Lugano. The Sentiero di Oliva takes you through olive groves, testifying to the warm climate that is almost Mediterranean. From Gandria, a ferry takes you back to Lugano.
