Our acquaintance with Lake Como began with the homonymous city of Como.
In Como there are not so many sights, cozy streets, however it is worth seeing the Cathedral of Como, the Temple of Volta, Villa Olmo, stroll along the waterfront.
Impressive views of the mountain village of Brunate, which can be reached by cable car (Funicolare Como - Brunate). The cost is 5 EUR. In no more than 5 minutes the funicular will lift you to a height of 700 m.
On the top there is a natural park, the church of Busto di Pencio Slavejkov, an observation deck with a chapel of Faro Voltiano with which these kinds of views open.
In the city of Como there is a silk museum. In the region, 80% of silk is produced in the country. And of course, there are a lot of shops where products from it are sold.
On the way from Como to the hotel we met the Traitoria Wiener Haus. In it, we decided to have supper. The institution is more for lovers of steaks. However, pasta, salads, chicken dishes, and even vegetarian dishes you will find for yourself here. The atmosphere of western with billiards and board games that offer while you are waiting for your order. We were satisfied and satisfied, having paid 35 EUR for four, servizzo (tip) 4.80 EUR.
The next point in our route was the city of Bellagio. The road through the serpentine is so picturesque that I wanted to stop every kilometer to enjoy the scenery, to take a photo.
On the way there are such waterfalls.

By the way, the road on the opposite shore of the sleeves from Como to Menaggio is much more pleasant. Consider this when planning a route. You can stop at Menaggio, and from there you can take a ferry to Bellagio, Varenna, Lenno.
On the way to Bellagio, you can visit the village of Torno, where you can walk to Villa Pliniana in half an hour. The villa itself is closed, but you can see a unique 80-meter waterfall, which falls with interruptions: the water then dies, then pours. Leonardo da Vinci mentioned it.
