"Lugano, Swiss Paradise. Lying on the banks of one of the
most beautiful lakes of the Alps region, Lugano is a renowned
tourism elite destination. Clean and glittering, it is riflected
in the lake, like Narcissus mirroring in his pond of water ...".

Lugano is a modern and vibrant town, a financial capital, that
has not lost its romantic and elegant nature. The town lies
on the shores of its lake that pays homage with a wonderful
view and a mild climate, very similar to that of the Mediterranean.
The vegetation is lush and rich, and there are many water sports
that you can enjoy throughout the year. Lugano is conveniently
linked to all major international airports; the railway station
is located above the historical town that can be reached by
a funicular.
The historical centre is a maze of narrow streets and arcades
and in the vicinity of the lively Piazza della Riforma. Via
Nassa is the main shopping street, where you can buy precious
jewellery or designer ware such as the prestigious Cartier,
Ermenegildo Zegna, Hermes, Louis Vuitton...
Lugano is also an important cultural pole, more so than financial.
Museums and Art Galleries offer exhibitions of international
importance, and in this context, the name of Mario Botta, stands
out like a beacon in the contemporary architecture world.
Lugano is a true gem combining the efficiency and the high standard
of Swiss living to the cheerfulness of the sun and the joy of
living typical of the Mediterranean regions.
