One Day in Bellagio from MilanPaperback, 21 August 2015

It is no mistake that Bellagio is called the ""pearl"" of Lake Como. It is undoubtedly the most famous resort on the lake. For centuries, Bellagio's scenic location has enchanted artists and writers, not only from Italy, but also from abroad. It is situated on the tip of a headland that divides the lake into the two legs of Como and Lecco. The town stretches along the coast and part of it goes up the slopes of the promontory. Because of its location Bellagio has a great variety of views; indeed, it offers a good view of the whole lake. On the northern horizon one can see the Pre-Alps. This guide covers Bellagio on Lake Como, from Lecco Ð Varenna, or, in alternative, via Como. There are extensive descriptions and photos of the attractions. This guide contains many reviews for the best recommended restaurants that are at walking distance from the boat pier or the train station.
