Villa del Balbianello

Without a doubt, Bailbianello Villa is one of the most photogenic places on Lake Como, both for its location as well as the elegant buildings and gardens. The Villa is located on a small peninsula towards the south end of the lake near Balbiano. Just getting there is part of the charm of the place, especially if you arrive by the motor boats that connect the villages. The boat drops you off at a small pier where you can then access the property and pass through the spectacular gate. Once inside the Villa, you can simply get lost in its spectacular gardens, and enjoy the stunning views of the lake.
