Lugano is a Swiss town with an
Italian flavor. The Italian influence is evident in the city's cafes,
sunny piazzas, cobblestone streets, and arcades. It's a city
designed for walking. You can wander at leisure, exploring its
historic old streets.
Lugano is built along the shore of Lake Lugano, which the Italians
call Lake Ceresio. The peaks of San Salvatore and Monte Brè loom on
opposite sides of town. The low mountains protect it from cold
alpine winds, and the climate is ideal from March to November. As
the cultural center of the Ticino, Lugano has attracted many artists
and casual visitors. |
