BellagioThere are few places as romantic as Lake Como, and even fewer lakeshore town as charming as Bellagio. "La perla del Lario" (the Pearl of Lake Lario, better known as Lake Como), as Bellagio is often called, is a perfect destination for a resting vacation and to admire one of the lake's most enchanting panoramas. Bellagio is situated in a privileged position on Lake Como, on the tip of the promontory which separates the lake into two branches, forming the Como branch westwards and the Lecco branch eastwards. The most ancient part of Bellagio occupies that area at the end of the promontory and is known as 'the Borgo'. It is a picturesque combination of stairways lined with colourful shops with the finest quality merchandise and excellent restaurants. Numerous little characteristic suburbs are scattered both along the lake and the hilly slopes above the Borgo. Bellagio is a strategic starting point for seeing the entire lake. Thanks to public transportation, including boats, ferry or hydrofoil, from Bellagio you will possibly visit the most romantic parts of Lake Como, with its towns and unique historic villas with magnificent gardens.
