Northwest of the capital city of Rome lies the secluded and charming village of Carenno. This Italian commune belongs to the municipality of Nesso in Lombardy. Picturesque Carenno offers travelers a serene, offbeat holiday experience, unlike the bustling fashion city of Milan, which is 45 kilometers (27 miles) away from the village. Carenno is predominantly influenced by medieval architectures and culture. One can enjoy a leisurely stroll along the cobblestone paths here, overlooking the splendid lake and verdant hilly areas, which are dotted by colorful cottages. If you’re someone who knows how to appreciate art and culture, this place is just what you need. There are numerous ancient buildings and churches here that date back to medieval times.
From the opposite side of the shore, this village looks like an inverted triangle with its majestic Romanesque Chiesa di San Martino Church at the bottom. Another popular attraction of this region is the Lake Como, which hosts the Trattoria del Porto, an ideal place to tantalize your taste buds with its local specialties. Make this place your next holiday destination by booking your ideal Airbnb vacation rental below:
