Bellagio is the town the entire world pictures when it pictures Lake Como. It sits at the very tip of the promontory where the lake splits into its two arms, which gives it the single most famous view in the region, water on three sides and the Alps all around. They call it the Pearl of the Lake, and for once the nickname is earned.
Best for: those chasing the classic Lake Como dream who will choose their spot carefully
