Italianate Garden

Backblipped for 21st

No holiday by Lake Como is complete without a visit to Villa Carlotta, a magnificent luxurious mansion stuffed full of sculptures by Canova and other works of art. The gardens are extensive and famous for the collection of rhododendrons and azeleas, best seen earlier in the year.

This is the view from one of the upper balconies of the terraced garden which can be seen from the road.
