Lake Como: Elegant Scenery and Easy Escapes

Lake Como feels refined but still approachable. From Milan, I took a train to Como town, then used ferries to explore the lake. Towns worth visiting: Bellagio Varenna Menaggio The ferry system makes it easy to move between them. Walking along the waterfront in the evening was one of the highlights — simple but beautiful. What I’d do differently: Stay in a smaller town like Varenna instead of Como.
