  Introduction
  Lake Como is in the northern Italian Lakes District.
  It lies between Milan and the border of Switzerland. It is surrounded by mountains and hills.
  Lake Como is Italy’s most popular lake and also its deepest (over 400m). It is shaped like an inverted[倒转的] Y, giving it a long perimeter[周长, 周界]. The lake is surrounded by beautiful villas and resort[胜地] villages as well as hiking paths, and it’s popular for boat trips and water activities. A popular destination since Roman times, Lake Como is a top romantic travel destination and a great spot for photography.
  
  When to Go
  Lake Como is a popular weekend destination for people from Milan, so the weekdays may be less crowded. July and August are the most crowded months. Spring and Fall are the best times to visit as it is less crowded and the weather is usually pleasant. During the winter, some services may be closed, but you can ski in the mountains nearby.
  
  Shopping
  The town of Como has many silk factories. So if you want to buy silk, Como is a good place to go. Prices are low on designer fashion fabrics. Como also has a Silk Museum dating from 1900 where you can see the entire silk-making process.
  
  Attractions
   Bellagio, known as the pearl of the lake, is in a beautiful setting and has many nice villas. It is easy to get to by ferry[渡船] from other cities on the lake.
   The walled town of Como has a good historic center
  and lively squares with nice cafes. There are several walking paths near town. Como makes a good base if you’re traveling by train. From Como you can take the funicular[索道] to the village of Brunate, 720m above Como, for hiking trails and beautiful views of the lake and the Alps.
   Villa d’Este, in the village of Cernobbio on the west coast, is the most famous of Lake Como’s villas. The villa is now a luxury hotel. Each of its 161 rooms is unique.
   Outdoor Activities – Biking, mountain biking, hiking, boating, paragliding[滑翔伞] and windsurfing[风帆冲浪]. In the winter, you can ski in the nearby mountains.
   Cruises[游船] – there are some interesting cruises around the lake on commercial[商业的] boats, mainly on weekends in the summer season.
