The area is well-known for its food, as it has a Mediterranean flair with its palms, figs, and citrus tastes. When not indulging in Ticino’s tasty delights, visit the three castles of Bellinzona, which are all UNESCO World Heritage Sites.
We also highly recommend renting a boat to see Lake Lugano. This gives you a panoramic view of Monte San Salvatore’s snow-capped peaks. For a fun way to explore the lakeside, you can always look for the 14 Swing the World Project sites.
They’re all in particular scenic areas of Ticino, providing a fantastic opportunity to snap some memorable family photos. Those who come here will often rent a boat to see Lake Lugano. This gives them a panoramic view of Monte San Salvatore’s snow-capped peaks.
The gorgeous sites aren’t done just yet. On your way between the towns of Lugano and Ticino, it’s hard to miss Sant’ Abbondio / Gentilino church. The cypress-lined avenue leading to the church perfectly represents why Ticino is often referred to as the Tuscany of Switzerland.
It’s easily one of the most scenic places in Switzerland.
