Isola Bella in Italy is like a floating garden in the sky above the lake!

In the Borromean Islands in northern Italy, there is a resort that seems like a paradise on earth, known as 'Beautiful Island' or Isola Bella. The island is filled with Baroque-style palaces, and every step is a picturesque scene, some even call it an 'aerial garden' 💐Isola Bella (Isola Bella - Lago Maggiore) ⛴️Transport: Isola Bella is very close to Milan, about a 1.5h drive, and there are ferries to and from the island every day, approximately from 9 am to 6 pm, with a boat departing frequently. After arriving on the island, it takes about 1 hour to walk around it 🔹More than four centuries ago, this small island was just a rocky cliff in the lake, with only a few fishermen's houses on it. In 1632, Carlo III of the noble Borromeo family of Italy built a palace on this small island for his wife Isabella D’Adda, and since then the island has been named after her (Bella means beautiful in Italian) 🔹The island has a different climate from the mainland, allowing for the cultivation of a variety of flowers. The layered ten-tiered terraced gardens are like a green pyramid, filled with flowers and citrus. The palace on the island can be visited for a fee, and inside the palace, you can see precious antique furniture and an art gallery that collects many ancient artworks 🔹The island is not very large, just like the legendary 'aerial garden'. The most splendid building in the garden is the Baroque-style magnificent water theater, with the front covered in caves, each decorated with shells and statues. Behind the island is the Palazzo Borromeo, a typical Lombard Baroque style, which took several centuries to complete and is very spectacular - 🏠Bed and Breakfast So today, let me share with you an Airbnb that I have been eyeing for a long time!
