About Lugano

Lugano is a lakeside city in Italian-speaking Switzerland, with palm-lined promenades, arcaded squares and mountains rising straight from the water.

Lugano lies on the shore of Lake Lugano in the Ticino canton, where the language is Italian and the climate is mild enough for palms and camellias. The old town centres on Piazza della Riforma, lined with cafés and arcades, and a promenade and the Parco Ciani run along the lake. Santa Maria degli Angioli, a church by the water, has a large Renaissance fresco of the Crucifixion by Bernardino Luini.

Top-ranked sights in Lugano: Lake Lugano, Church of Santa Maria degli Angioli, Monte Brè.
