Review of Comune di Orta San Giulio (NO)

Beautiful and unexpected Borgo this! You arrive from the top and no one could imagine finding yourself, descending a long staircase, in a tangle of narrow streets with an ancient aspect.
Villa Bossi is the seat of the municipality, its gardens can be visited free of charge. A souvenir photo is a must next to the statue of the painter who immortalizes the landscape.
Definitely to visit the small island in front, reachable by boat at a cost of about 3 euros per person. Boarding can be found in the main square.
I really liked Orta San Giulio and Omegna, it's a pity that there are few free beaches to get wet and sunbathe.
I remember that in Orta San Giulio there is also Villa Crespi, managed by the famous chef Cannavacciuolo, for my son it was an honor to be able to take a picture with him on the fly!
Holidays different from the usual but equally 5 stars !!! Wonderful Italy!
