LAKE
COMO
Lake
Como is about 48km (30 miles)
north of Milan. It is a romantic
and lovely Lake of a shimmering
deep blue, spanning 4km (2 1/2
miles) at its widest point. With
its flower-filled gardens, villas
that were built for the wealthy
families of the seventeenth and
eighteenth centuries and its mild
climate, it rates as being among
among the most scenic spots in
Italy. The best way to admire the
lake's many attractions is to take
a boat tour and pull into selected
ports of call en route for a meal,
an espresso, a stroll, or some
shopping or swimming.
