STRESA. The Best Place to go in ITALY. (Lake District)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 23 чер 2018
- We spend an afternoon exploring the islands of Stresa! Situated in Northern Italy, Stresa is on Lake Maggiore and surrounded by the Alps! Stresa has a few different islands and we visited two of them.
We started on Isola dei Pescatori (Fisherman’s Island) where we had a pizza lunch and then explore the small streets. We also flew our drone to get some great overhead footage of the island.
We then made our way over to Isola Bella to spend some time in the palace and the amazing gardens, which are supposed to be one of the best examples of Italian gardens in all of Italy. While there we encountered white peacocks for the first time.
More information about the island, palace and gardens can be found here: www.illagomaggiore.com/en_US/2...

Internationally recognised as the jewel of Lake Maggiore, Stresa is one of the most exclusive tourist destinations on Lake Maggiore.In addition to millions of tourists, the Borromean Islands also enchanted Stendhal, Liszt, and Mendelssohn. Dumas recalled them in “The Count of Montecristo”, Turner and Corot represented them in oil paintings and watercolours, D’Annunzio even tried to rent one. Just across from the town of Stresa (in Italy), the archipelago is easily accessible in just few hours by ferryboat from Locarno or Ascona. It consists of three islands: Isola Bella with its grandiose mansion and terraced gardens, Isola Madre with its luxurious English park, and Isola dei Pescatori, a picturesque fishing village boasting an ancient atmosphere.
Isola dei Pescatori (Fisherman’s Island): It is the smallest and quaintest of the three islands, and the only one with permanent residents. The restaurants on the island offer menus based on the typical cuisine of the lake.
Isola Bella (Beatiful Island): dominated by its magnificent Baroque palazzo, which is accompanied by a luxuriant Italian-style garden laid out over ten terraces, 37 meters high. The garden displays exotic plants of great rarity and many strikingly lovely flowers, alongside statues, fountains and the Unicorn, depicted in the coat-of-arms of the aristocratic Borromeo family. There are also beautiful white peacocks, free to roam the gardens, which with their regal bearing contribute to giving Isola Bella the flavour of past times.

It was pretty awesome indeed. 🙌 - T
Fell in love with Stresa in May 2002. Was lucky to live nearby for a short time. Have been back many times. Pity you rushed the palace, has great history and the grotto rooms are amazing.
We were sad we had to rush the palace as well. It looked incredible but they were locking the doors while we were inside haha - Anna
Thank You 💓
Sooo beautiful. Love those little alleys. Reminds me of my hometown in Portugal. Truly gorgeous. Came from twitter. Wanted to show some love ! Awesome content!!
Thanks for coming over from Twitter. It does remind us a little of Portugal as well. What part are you from? We were there last year. - Trevor
Delightful Travellers your welcome! my family is from Lisbon. And Algarve.
Oh wow. We visited both those places. You'll find the videos if you look back in our history. - Anna

Man, that looks beautiful. We haven't made it down to the lakes yet, need to, stunning guys!!!😲 Pizza ,boose and that view - can't be bad!!😋🙂
It's pretty wild right. When I started editing I just couldn't get over the footage. Pizza, booze and view is right hahah! You guys still in Poland? - Trevor
Briefly back in UK then off to Gdansk.Will need to watch your video on it -cheers mate👍
Booze and Pizza is that all you think of?
You have great taste and you can appreciate and discover these gems outside common tourist circuit, .
Italy is more than Rome Florence Venice packed of tourists.
You are on another level than other travellers compliments, from Italy.
Thank you! We really enjoyed this area of Italy. We also really liked Bologna - Anna
The Borromeo family was a nobile family not Royal prince for whom the Borromean islands were named yes their family crest is a unicorn. Bella, Pescatore and Madre
how were the prices for the boat trips, visiting stuff around stresa and hotel ? me and my wife want to visit Italy and you've just gave us a nice idea :D
Not too bad. About $10 Euro pp I believe for a return trip. It's so worth it 😀- Trevor
You have discovered a better side of Italy.
It seems so Szymon. This lake district is something special. Thx for watching - Trevor
My sister remembers the Italian Alps well, but when she hears the word Venice immediately changes the subject. I hope you show more beautiful places underrated by tourists and once You will visit my mountains.
Oh we will. We always try to mix it up with some major tourist cities VS the unknowns. There is a lot of content coming to the channel. It's going to be fun! - Trevor
So you're doing something good. Life is not a list of things to do.
No such thing as a spicy margarita… we always add chili oil.
It’s authentic if it’s in Italy made by Italians. Our red sauce is always basic and stored and made once a year for the year. So we can mix and match it later!
We never pre spice ever
Ci sono stato qualche giorno fa anche io e ho fatto un video 📼 😊
The video is miss-titled. This is not Stresa, it is the Borromean Islands which are off the lakeside near the town of Stresa. There is nothing about Stresa here, per se. It’s a nice video, but more shots of the beautiful scenery and less of the authors’ faces and less pictures of chewing food would improve it.
I think I've probably just about seen everything when an american judges a pizza, in Italy. All this while simultaneously sipping lager. Gotta love the yanks 😂
We're Canadian ✌️
@@DelightfulTravellers To Italians, as long as you're spending your money and behaving yourself, you can be whatever you like 😂
"...La sera, saliamo alla Madonna del Monte....Insieme stupendo; al tramonto, si vedevano sette laghi. Credimi, amico, puoi percorrere tutta la Francia e la Germania senza mai provare simili sensazioni..."
Stendhal (su Varese), Viaggi In Italia, 1817
can you tell me name of artist or song title one minute into video? is bon iver? thanks!
It's from a service we use called epidemic sound. I don't recall off hand who the artist is but it's not Bon Iver as that would get us a copyright claim ;)
пиздато!
OMyGYaySoooGladYou'veBeenThereIt'sAmazingRightYesssIHaveToGoBack🥰🥰🥰
Mi fanno sempre ridere gli stranieri che degustano e danno pareri sulla pizza 😂😂
A shame you spent so much time on Pescatori.....you missed SO much of Bella.....
Next time!
