Bellissimo Bellagio: The Pearl of Lake Como

No town on Lake Como could be more picturesque and tastier than Bellagio. It’s definitely a place to visit if you’re in northern Italy and want a taste of what it must have been like to be an 1880s bored aristocrat doing the obligatory “grand tour” of the continent, like in the novel by Henry James, Portrait of a Lady… but with wifi and suntan lotion and none of that 1800s dying of tuberculosis and cholera.
