Ticino is set in the southernmost canton of Switzerland and situated up against Italy. The intermingling of the Swiss and Italian lifestyle resulted in the most interesting region you can visit in Switzerland. Thanks to its neighbor’s influence, Ticino turned out to be the only canton in the country that solely uses the Italian language. The Italian influence is also evident in the region’s architecture, pace of life, and food. Here, you’ll find beautiful lakes, gorgeous views of the Alps, palm-lined boulevards, bustling towns, and many more. Sail a boat on Lake Lugano or climb Monte San Salvatore. You can also visit beautiful structures such as the Castles of Bellinzona. Discover what other attractions make this place special when you book a stay here.
