What to expect

Lugano's Mediterranean charm, with sunny weather, lush landscapes, a captivating lake, and shopping opportunities, is a magnet for travelers. However, beneath its modern allure lies a rich tapestry of ancient history. Enjoy serene lake views under mulberry trees, reminiscent of Lugano's silk industry. Across the lake stands the imposing Casinò di Campione in the Italian enclave of Campione d'Italia, entirely surrounded by Switzerland. Stroll Via Canova, passing the Palazzo Reali, a museum exhibiting 19th- and 20th-century art. At the heart of it all is Piazza Riforma, known as the city's living room. Don't miss the historic Grand Café al Porto, open since 1803 and a witness to the 19th-century Italian unification movement led by Giuseppe Mazzini. It's also where US intelligence officer Allen Dulles, the future CIA head, met with Nazi and Italian representatives, shaping the conclusion of WWII. Lugano seamlessly blends history, espionage, and glamour in its captivating ambiance.
