The atlas says Lugano is in Switzerland but, as the name suggests, this picture-postcard paradise clings to its Italian roots. Situated in the south-central district of Ticino, Lugano is separated from Italy by palm-tree studded lakes and the Alp’s lush foothills.

I found Lugano to be a busy and modern city with lovely lakeside promenades lined with flowering trees and fountains at the squares. Lugano is only 40 miles from Milan. Hence, close on the heels of its more fashionable neighbour, Lugano too boasts of designer shops and famous brands.

One of the most nicest regions of the country. Very attractive and always a warm welcome. Some of the best services, too.

Lugano is my hometown - or more or less. I was born and brought up 7 kilometres south from it... I thought I hated it, I left it for more exciting places, I always came back.
