Isola Bella - Stresa


Hello all,

I was visiting Milan for couple of days and with this occasion i planned a short visit (1 day) to Lago Maggiore and its surroundings.
Isola Bella is one of the islands part of Lago Maggiore, in north Italy, very close to town of Stresa. The lake has 2 more islands: Isola Madre and Isola Superiore.

Isola Bella is fully occupied by Palazzo Borromeo and its gardens. You can arrive to the island with regular ferry service from Stresa, Laveno, Pallanza and Intra.
