Tessin - Italian part of Switzerland


Beautiful old villages in the val Maggia (magic valley) with tons of water cascading down the mountains into the forests of wild chestnut trees. Who could miss this? And the weather is always warmer here than the rest of Switzerland - so the vegetation is a mixture of alpine & mediterranean with palm trees!
Amazing!
Oh and the pasta & cappuchinos are worth it too!
