Como, Italy

Como is located in northern Italy on the shores of Lake Como. Lake Como is Italy’s third largest lake and although totally in Italy, is located very close to the Swiss border.

Our hotel was located in South Como with a view of the lake. A short walk up from the lakeshore led along cobblestone streets to an old area of the community.

Streets in this area were narrow with open squares with a choice of restaurants and plenty of upscale shopping opportunities.20110713-055821.jpg
