BELLAGIO

Bellagio

Bellagio, known as “the pearl of Lario” is a wonderful little city set in the hills at the Y point of Lake Como. It is quaint, romantic and picturesque. For us it is a great day trip from Lecco and about a 35 minutes drive. Bellagio is great for shopping for locally produced silk, antiques and original craftwork. Don’t miss visiting Villa Serbelloni or Vila Melzi. You must try the local speciality Risotto al Pesce di Persico (Italian rice and Perch).
