Western Lake Como
From Cernobbio to Isola Comacina (Como's only island), the western shore has much to offer to the visitor: hotels of diffe rent categories (all of them comfortable, some of them world-famous), churches of all ages and styles, magnificent villas, sanctuary churches in splendid position (such as the one on top of Monte Bisbino or the Sacro Monte at Ossuccio), centuries-old gardens and parks, old and modern buildings.
