GANDRIA - a peaceful little village

Gandria is a peaceful little village located right on Lake Lugano. The village has narrow little streets, many stone stairs with lovely view points. We have been there many times and cannot get enough of the magical atmosphere.

There are small restaurants with lovely little outdoor spaces. We recommend the restaurant Locanda Gandriese. We also recommend taking a look to the lovely church. If you want to take a bath and lie on a beach, then you have to try the Lido San Domenico.
