The Viganello area, thanks to its strategic location, offers a perfect balance between the tranquility of a residential area and the proximity to Lugano's main attractions. Monte Brè, easily reachable by funicular a few steps away from the flat, offers wonderful views of Lake Lugano and the Alps and various itineraries in nature. Also within easy reach is the wonderful Parco Ciani, one of Lugano's most beautiful parks, which houses the modern Palazzo dei Congressi. In only 10-15 minutes by car or by public transport you can reach the historic center of Lugano, a lively landmark for culture and entertainment. In the city center is the renowned Piazza della Riforma, animated by open-air cafés and fine restaurants, perfect for soaking up the city atmosphere. For shoppers, Via Nassa is the ideal place, with its luxury boutiques, jewellers and exclusive handicraft shops. The center is also home to important museums, such as the Museo d'Arte della Svizzera Italiana (MASI) and the LAC (Lugano Arte e Cultura), a modern cultural hub dedicated to theater performances, concerts and art exhibitions that offers a rich programme of events all year round.
