Its cypresses and wisteria offer a beautiful backdrop for a walk in the gardens. Nearby, Villa Monastero has been called the most interesting point on the eastern shore of Lake Como. It was a 16th century abbey, originally a spiritual retreat for Cistercian nuns who were then hunted for their overly enthusiastic way of enjoying the beauty of the lake. The garden of the Villa, rich in sculptures and splendid architectural elements, is considered one of the best in Italy. La Passerella, or lakefront, enjoys a splendid view of the old fishing village and the opposite bank. A walk along the catwalk at sunset can be an unforgettable experience. In the square stands the fourteenth-century church of San Giorgio, built on an ancient temple. This parish church has a characteristic round bell tower made of red brick whose bells can be heard throughout the country. In the square there is also the Medieval Church of San Giovanni Battista (built in 1208), one of the oldest on the lake.
