A marvellous villa with an unforgettable garden
On the north-western coast of the Castagnola Headland (on the western side of Lake Maggiore) you can visit the Gardens of Villa Taranto, one of the most beautiful locations to be seen in Piemonte. The amazing garden looks like a total work of art and houses thousands of flowers and plants coming from all over the world. Some of the specimen are extremely rare and make this "botanical gallery" a unique collection which during the spring- and summer-time offers a fascinating sight.
