Region Ticino

Ticino is the gateway to the South. It will captivate you with its charm, fascinate you with its lifestyle and Italian language. On the other side of the Alps, the South greets you with its Italian flair, mild climate, palms on pristine beaches, lovely valleys, Romanesque churches and picturesque lanes leading to bustling piazzas. But the Alpine world is never far away. Those looking for the Dolce Vita can find peace in subtropical gardens. Those who prefer spine-tingling adventure can shoot the rapids in the gorges. And those who seek culture can find it everywhere: poets and artists are attracted to the romantic scenery; the traditional old styles inspire architects to create bold new buildings.
