    A lovely and charming garden, well maintained and labeled for touring on one's one.

    Glass house has great waterlilies; the allee of japanese maples are beautiful (and in June, all in full bloom).

    Lovely setting on Lake Maggiore; easy (and free) parking at entrance.

    Worth a visit.
