Located along Italy’s northern border, sharing the picturesque Alps with Switzerland, the region of Lombardy is full of gems. Occupied by a large area of Po’s river valley, Lombardy contains some of Italy’s most beautiful natural scenery as well as some of man’s most incredible works. Lombardy’s cities and villages are rich with opportunities for memorable discoveries during a Lombardy vacation.
Lombardy's treasures include Bergamo's picturesque piazza, the Romanseque and Gothic churches of Pavia, and so much more. Mantova’s Ducal Palace holds a cycle of frescoes by master artist, Mantegna. Lombardy's capital, Milan, Italy's economic center, is a surprisingly pleasing home to three great Romanesque churches- not including Santa Maria della Grazie which holds Leonardo’s frescoed masterpiece of the Last Supper.
The lakes one will visit during a Lombardy vacation are lovely, with vastly differing characters. Lake Como, only a few hours from the region’s airport- provides opportunities for leisurely boat excursions that provide awe inducing views of the sumptuous villas and lush, captivating gardens, a true must to experience during a Lombardy vacation. This region is also home to the exquisitely charming villages of Bellagio, la perla del lago (the pearl of the lake) Varenna, home to Fiumelatte, the milk- white waterfall with a mysterious source and Tremezzo, a darling lakeside town. Another lake, Iseo can be found here, smaller than Como yet equally fantastic. Lake Maggiore, the second largest lake in Italy has its three distinctly unique islands: Isola Bella, Isola dei Pescatori, and Isola Madre. A portion of Lake Garda, the largest of Italy’s lakes, can be found in Lombardy, a stunning site with its transparent, intensly blue-hued waters and dramatic mountainsides.
The gorgeous region of Lombardy awaits your visit!
