A Traditional & Picturesque Village On Lake Como - Varrena

The peaceful former fishing town of Varenna is located on the eastern shore of Lake Como, Italy. It is home to beautiful villas like Villa Monastero and Villa Cipresso. You can walk the charming little streets, alleys and stairways leading to the interior of the village. The main square is called Piazza San Giorgio and it contains restaurants, a few hotels and of course the church.

Here is what caught my eye, I hope you enjoy!
