Lugano's Urban Style

The mild climate and warm people are the center of Italian-speaking Switzerland. Because the geographical location is close to Milan, Italy, it has a strong sense of fashion and is also a shopping paradise.

Sightseeing on the beautiful Lugano Lake, or hiking on Mount Bray and Mount San Sal Watol, etc. You can enjoy the natural scenery all year round. Delicacies such as Italian hollow powder made of cheese are mouth-watering, and there is also a cultural and artistic street that combines medieval relics and modern architecture representing Mario Botha's style, which is also worth seeing.

In summer, Wilhelm Tell Express connects Davos or Saint Moritz from Zurich/Lucerne via Heidi Express and Berner Express. As a starting point for traveling around northern Italy, it is very convenient.

"Gui" is the third largest financial center in Switzerland, but the lively atmosphere that should have appeared in Lugano is hard to find. On the contrary, another kind of anti-customer-oriented idle and lazy temperament pervades every alley in the city. Lugano, built in the 6th century AD, has a clean and tidy environment because cars are forbidden. It is the capital of Ticino in southern Switzerland, adjacent to Italy. Known as "near Zhu Zhechi", Lugano is a typical "Italian" face in terms of urban climate, architectural style and local customs. The most "excessive" thing is that the common language here is entirely Italian, and other official Swiss languages such as German and French are rarely used.

No wonder people from other parts of Switzerland feel "going abroad" when they come here. As if you were in enthusiastic Italy, the specification of "domestic tour" was upgraded to "international tour" for free, and the bad "hobbies" originating from Italy were filtered out: dirty market and arrogant pickpockets.

Ticino is located in the south of the Alps, and Lugano, the capital, enjoys a favorable climate and favorable geographical conditions: Lugano enjoys the most sunshine in Switzerland all year round. As soon as the air is filled with the breath of summer, the Swiss can't wait to rush here to "bask in the sun". Even on a gloomy winter day, the sunshine here is not stingy. Such a "golden city" is not only regarded by the Swiss, but also by people in the Nordic countries such as the Netherlands. No wonder Lugano topped the list of "the city you want to live in after retirement". The good feng shui here has also been favored by others, and neighboring cities such as Locano and As-cona have also become popular holiday destinations.

A city can only have wisdom if it has water. Lugano has a lake with the same name as himself: Lugano Lake. It is like a huge mirror, embedded in Lugano. The best way to appreciate Lugano is to do nothing, find a lawn by the lake, smell the grass and sit down and read for an afternoon. Or rent a boat, drift around Lake Lugano and take a few naps until your whole muscles stretch out.

The words plan or itinerary are redundant in Lugano. It is already an excellent way to travel without deliberate arrangement, just wandering around the lake and foothills. In the morning, you can stroll around Lugano's fruit and vegetable market and watch piles of fruits waiting for people to choose at will. This is very interesting. Or on a whim, drive all the way along the foothills of the lake to Italy for a "transnational" lunch, even if it's just an authentic Italian pizza. Come back at dusk, watch the sunset on Lake Lugano, and then spend a lot of time studying the menus of various restaurants and planning what good things to eat at night. I went to the pub for a few drinks at night, and I was lost in the moonlight.
