Ciao Lugano! Ciao Ticino!

by naranja - last update: Sep 11, 2002

Lugano is a charming small town in southern Switzerland in a region called Ticino. The language spoken is Italian, because Italy is just around the corner. You can feel the latin flair anywhere you go. Lugano has a beautiful lake surrounded by mountains and the countryside is worth a trip in any season. The magic attraction of theTicino is not hard to understand. Where else can you enjoy palmtrees and snow covered mountaintops, sit in a grotto on a stone bench at a stone table under trees and sip a glass of local Barbera or Merlot wine, take a walk through a forest of chestnuttrees or enjoy the blossom of a camelia, while on the northern side of the Alps winter still reigns?

 Was in Ticino last weekend and re-discovered Valle Verzasca after many years. Your pictures are beautiful, as the Valley is. Jacqueline
