Overlooking Lake Como is a village with ancient origins called Menaggio that is within a 15-30 minute ferry ride from Bellagio, Varenna, and Tremezzina. The village is full of artisan shops, local food vendors, restaurants, and clothing stores, as well as historic sites such as the Church of Santa Marta, which houses ancient Italian artworks from the 17th century. One of the most popular attractions at Menaggio is the Lake Promenade, which is lined with brightly colored homes, flower gardens, and paths around Lake Como. Visitors can also rent boats from the promenade and visit the surrounding towns. The upper part of Menaggio called Old Town, features architecture from medieval Italy that still stands today. There are also beautiful villas and beaches to be explored. Menaggio
