Bellinzona (Ticino)
To the north, the gateway to Italy. To the south, the key to the Alps. The location of Ticino`s capital made the Lombardic-style city a constant bone of contention between the Dukes of Milan and the Swiss.
Locarno (Ticino)
The Piazza Grande is the heart of Locarno`s city centre. In the old town, patrician houses with concealed balconies bear witness to the supremacy of this once-wealthy trading metropolis.
Lugano (Ticino)
The architectural potential offered by Lugano, Switzerland`s third most important banking city, is awe-inspiring.
