22021 Bellagio CO, Italy
Bellagio sits at the southern tip of the wooded promontory that splits Lake Como into its two southern branches, and it has been the lake's most photographed village since the 19th century. The historic centre rises from the ferry pier in a tight grid of stone steps and shop-lined alleys - Salita Serbelloni, Salita Mella, Salita Genazzini - leading past the 11th-century Basilica di San Giacomo and a cluster of villa gardens that face open water on three sides.
Day-trippers tend to crowd Piazza della Chiesa between 11:00 and 16:00, but most leave on the late afternoon ferries. Stay through dinner and the village empties to the residents and overnight guests, with lakefront cafes spilling onto the promenade and the lights of Varenna and Tremezzo across the water. The Las Vegas resort that borrowed the name was reportedly inspired by the founder's vacation here in the 1990s.
Pro Tip: Walk uphill from the ferry pier to Salita Serbelloni and turn left along Via Garibaldi for the quietest stretch of the centro storico - the lake views between the buildings are the ones that made Bellagio famous, but most visitors stay closer to the water.
