Amidst magnificent parks, grand villas, myths, and prominence


The view is extraordinary and picturesque. On the opposite shore, the rocks and trees are reflected with wonderful clarity in the lake, while rays of light fall onto the calm water from many distant windows.

In his 1896 travel diary "The Innocents Abroad", Mark Twain described "Lago di Como" or "Lario," as it is often called by locals, as one of the most exhilarating landscapes in Italy. Nearly 130 years later, the impressions of the famous English writer still endure: to this day, the lake with its unusual "Y" shape remains one of the sought-after destinations in Northern Italy, attracting numerous tourists from around the world.

But what would the magnificent lake and rock panorama be without its splendid villas, parks and botanical gardens adorned with lush vegetation? For personalities in politics, entertainment, and business, a residence or vacation home on Lake Como has been and continues to be a status symbol.
