What to see in Lombardy

A remarkable artistic heritage, a variety of landscapes, rich cultural traditions... all waiting to be discovered!

Lombardy is a region that presents a perfect mix of nature, history, art, culture with innovation, technology and fashion. You must be wondering: "What can I do in the region"?

Let's start in Milan, the regional capital and city of trends and fashion, where you can spend your time in wonderful and breathtaking places: the Alla Scala Theatre, the Sforza Castle and the monumental Cathedral, and cultural sights can also be found in the province: Monza with its park and the Royal Villa, Brescia with the Monastery of San Salvatore, Cremona with its Renaissance palaces, Pavia with its hundred towers, Visconti fortress and University, and Bergamo Alta. It’s easy to find things to see in Lombardy.

And we must not forget the great lakes. The Lake Como, much loved by the international jet set, the Lecco branch, with testimonies of Manzoni, Lake Maggiore, with its parks and villages, Lake Iseo and the western side of Lake Garda, with restaurants and entertainments.

For those who love the mountains, we suggest the famous resorts in Valtellina and Valchiavenna with great ski lifts and sports facilities. With many activities on offer, finding what to do will certainly be easy.

The hills of Franciacorta, famous for its vineyards and the plains of Lomellina, a land of farmers and rice fields, complete this picture. Treat yourself to an escape from the hustle and bustle of the city with a ride on horseback or by bicycle.

A visit Lombardy will amaze you.
