Locarno Vacation Packages
The Swiss town of Locarno is located on the northern shore of Lake Maggiore, close to the Italian border. The mild Mediterranean climate provides rich flora (magnolias, camellias, azaleas, oleanders) that embellish the area and give this vacation resort a warm, relaxing atmosphere. The heart of the city is the Piazza Grande, well-known for its annual film festival, the Festival Internazionale del Cinema di Locarno, held in August. The narrow lanes of the Old Town all lead to the Piazza. Castello Visconteo, a castle dating back to the 12th century, lies at the edge of the Old Town.
