Situated in a natural basin between the mountains and Lake Como, Villa Carlotta stands just in front of the gorgeous lake, offering some stunning views that are complemented by an equally sublime collection of plant life and art.

The museum and gardens have a combined area of 70 thousand square metres, of which every inch is a feast for the eyes. Inside the building, elegant arched ceilings are suspended above shining marble floors while every room is decorated with impressive frescoes, majestic statues and intricate reliefs which suit one another without being overwhelming to the senses. Upon exiting the museum, be greeted by a garden paradise before you. Bursting with shrubs, palm trees and flower bushes, and featuring a wrought-iron gate along with an elegant fountain, the garden is a perfect location for a romantic stroll.
