Lugano

Tucked along the northern shore of Lake Lugano, Lugano is a place whose character is shaped by the meeting of water and the southern Alpine slopes. The lake extends across the Swiss–Italian border, while Monte Brè and Monte San Salvatore rise above the city’s shores. Italian is the local language of Ticino, lending Lugano a cultural atmosphere distinct from other Swiss cities. Piazza della Riforma serves as the centre’s civic focus, and the Cathedral of San Lorenzo is recognised for its Renaissance façade.
