"This lake exceeds anything I ever beheld in beauty."- Percy Bysshe Shelley
Lake Como, considered Italy's most beautiful lake, possesses a picturesque and classic quality. For this reason it has been the setting of many feature films, among them Star Wars Episode II, Casino Royale and Ocean's Twelve. After filming Ocean's Twelve, George Clooney even decided to purchase a villa of his own here. For centuries various famous writers, such as Byron, Stendhal and Shelley, and members of royalty have made Lake Como their favorite destination. |
