VILLA TARANTO

Everyone coming to lake Maggiore will definitely try his best to visit the botanical gardens of Villa Taranto in Verbania-Pallanza, among the most beautiful gardens all over the world. “Today’s appearance is not natural, but the result of an arduous elaboration undertaken by Captain McEacharn in 1931. Coming into the gardens of Villa Taranto is just like making a travel through foreign lands”.

Isola Madre

“The botanical heritage and the exotic touch made this island the most voluptuous place on hearth”, said Gustave Flaubert. The actual english-style garden was created at the beginning of the XIX century. Since then it welcomes trees and flowers from far away, acclimated to comfortable temperatures and weather conditions.
