#27 Explore Morcote: the most beautiful village in Switzerland

Small cruises along the Ceresio depart daily from Lugano by boat. Be sure to make a stop in Morcote: one of the most beautiful villages in Switzerland.

The characteristic narrow streets, the arcades of the old patrician houses, architectural monuments of great value and lush subtropical vegetation make Morcote the "Pearl of the Ceresio". A steep flight of steps leads to the beautiful complex formed by the church of S. Maria del Sasso, the cemetery and the chapel of S. Antonio da Padova.
