Bellagio is the pearl of Lake Como. An elegant and exclusive resort located on a promontory separating the two arms of the reservoir, it is famous for its beautiful residential buildings and amazing views.
Lake Como is considered to be one of the most beautiful lakes in Europe. It is a perfect combination of a mountain landscape, water and picturesque buildings. Bellagio, once a fishing village, is considered the most beautiful resort on Como, today a place where people from all over the world come.
Como's career began in the 19th century and his fame continues. Next to a small, quite narrow center, there are numerous villas and palaces. Many of them are still owned by representatives of the financial and cultural elite from around the world. The Old Town with its narrow streets steeply sloping down to the lake is full of shops, restaurants and cafes. In season, they are filled with a multinational crowd, both relaxing on the spot and coming for a trip of several hours.
Among the many beautiful residences in Bellagio, Villa Melzi surrounded by a garden stands out. The park on the shores of the lake is open to visitors. Above the buildings, the Villa Sebelloni, which is currently in the hands of the Rockefeller Foundation, rises.
Apart from the beautiful location and buildings, Bellagio's attractions are two beaches, which are full of tourists in the season. There is also a kayak and water equipment rental, as well as a marina from which Navigazione Laghi ships depart to many towns on the shores of Como.
