Lakeside Europe

The lakefront of Bellagio is gorgeous as it is wide, tidy and offers beautiful views of the Bellagio profile. Walking along the lakefront towards the center of Bellagio, you can admire some beautiful views.

The colorful buildings that overlook the lake in the center of Bellagio, the swans that move elegantly on the lake, and the comings and goings of the boats are the predominant elements of these scenarios.

Walking along the lakefront of Bellagio, we must take the time to enjoy these views to enjoy them to the fullest.

Salita Serbelloni

The Salita Serbelloni is maybe the most famous Bellagio street because you always see it in the social. It’s a very instagrammable place. This street is always cute as a wide staircase forms it, it is full of colorful little shops and characteristic corners, but I think autumn is the best period to see it.

However, this steer is cute to see and has particular historical importance. The inhabitants of Bellagio still call it “The Moat” today because, in the Middle Age period, a moat was used to defend the village.

Furthermore, the wall on the right, if we see the Salita Serbelloni with Via Garibaldi behind us, was part of the medieval defensive system of Bellagio, with three entrances or city gates towards the village.

Where were the 3 city gates to the village of Bellagio in the Middle Ages?

  1. One of the city gates was located right at the top of Salita Serbelloni, where there was also a drawbridge.
  2. One on the side of the lake, still highlighted today by the passage under the small porch.
  3. One near the current bell tower.
