Palazzo Borromeo
Museum
😠 Didn’t even get to experience the palace. When we arrived there was a tour group of several hundred people waiting in line so we decided to leave and come back after the line died down. When we returned 20 mins later there weren’t as many people in line so we decided to enter at the back end of the...

Giardini Botanici dell'Isola Madre
Botanical garden
👍 Beautyful gardens, very well arranged and looked after. Especially the bougainvillea climbing the faces of the pallazzo are just stunning. But also the story of the revived Cedar Tree is pretty cool.
The cafe however was very disapointing. Badly organised and unfriendly staff as well as ridiculous p...

Museo del Paesaggio
Art museum
👍👍 Il museo del Paesaggio che si trova a Palazzo Viani è una chicca. La gipsoteca dedicata allo scultore Troubetzkoy è eccezionale così come la collezione di opere pittoriche ottocentesche e novecentesche e la sala degli affreschi del quattrocento .

Mottarone
Tourist attraction
👍👍 I come here to take the roller coaster. To my surprise, the landscape on the top of the mountain is fantastic. From the peak, I can see two lakes in different sides, Lago Maggiore in the east and Lago d'Orta in the west. I come in the end of April. The mountains in the far view are still covered by...

Lungolago di Omegna
Tourist attraction
👍 Passeggiata gradevole sul Lungolago di Omegna sul lago d'Orta, con la particolarità del Torrente Nigoglia che, si fa notare, per la controintuitiva direzione delle sue acque che scorrono in direzione Nord, ossia, come dicono i locali, "scorre all'insù". Infatti il Torrente Nigoglia raccoglie le acqu...

👍👍 Diese Insel ist die zweitgrößte der drei borromäischen Inseln und auch sehr lebhaft. Es gibt jede Menge Souvenirshops und natürlich auch viele Restaurants usw. Aber zusätzlich bietet diese Insel einen großen Palast den man besichtigen kann und zusätzlich einen sehr schönen Garten, den man aber nur b...

Isola dei Pescatori
Tourist attraction
👍 Wunderschöne kleine Insel, die vom Gefühl her nur aus Restaurants besteht. Man kann sie von Baveno per Boot erreichen, ebenso wie die anderen Inseln. Angebote dazu gibt es genug.
Eine Stunde zum bummeln reicht völlig aus. Wer noch etwas essen möchte, der sollte natürlich etwas länger bleiben.

Passeggiata Dell'Amore
Promenade
👍 Ich muss ehrlich sein: das gefällt mir nicht.
Es ist sicherlich etwas neu, und die Idee ist auch sehr schön, aber mir gefällt nicht. Meiner Meinung nach könnt es besser entwerft sein konnte.
Insgesamt will ich die Idee und die Investition belohnen, und ich werde 4 Sterne geben.

Cascata del Pescone
