Locarno and Lake Maggiore
The favourite lake of Stendhal and many other writers and poets is irresistibly fascinating. Lake Maggiore is the image of the South, with palm trees and panoramic views reminiscent of the French Riviera. On the River Maggia delta, Locarno is famous for its international film festival held every year in August. With the Mediterranean flora of its parks stretching along the romantic shores of the lake and its historic centre, it is a charming little town, characteristic of the Italian region of Switzerland.
A few kilometres away is Ascona and its famous lakeside with small shops, cafés and sunny terraces.
