I only spent a day there, but what a memorable day…and, as time was at a premium, I made the most of it. I took in Bellagio on the southern shore - a must-see - and soon discovered why it's called 'the pearl of the lake'. It was one of the most beautiful towns I have ever visited in Europe and with its narrow-cobbled streets, breathtaking views and glorious villas it was simply enchanting.
I travelled there by bus from the town of Como and returned by boat to the town of Lecco. The best of both worlds, I reckon!

The new Stone Age
uau, ...Los Angeles tals about Valchiavenna !??
The new Stone Age: "In Italy, the capital of stone cookware is the Valchiavenna, a valley north of Lake Como, also well known as a ski area. It has been making soapstone pots at least since the 1400s. As in Brazil, the pots are worked with lathes. The stone pot ('laveggio' or 'lavecc'), the symbol of the local cuisine, is used for making soups, risottos and long-cooked meat dishes such as potatoes and sausages or pork ribs in wine."
