Head to Lugano in winter and experience the dreamlike winter scenery of Switzerland

Head to Lugano in winter and experience the dreamlike winter scenery of Switzerland❄️ Guys, traveling to Lugano, Switzerland in winter is super romantic! Today, I'm sharing this super detailed travel guide with you all~ If you're departing from Milan, it only takes 1 hour to drive to Lugano. But before crossing the border, remember to buy a highway pass sticker for EUR 44 at the service area next to the border, and stick it on the upper left corner of the inside of the front windshield. If you're not an EU citizen, be sure to bring your residence permit and passport in case of inspection. Once you arrive in Lugano, don't miss these attractions: Monte San Salvatore: If you want to experience the fun of hiking, you can choose to hike up the mountain, which takes about 2 hours. You can enjoy the beautiful natural scenery of Switzerland and breathe in the fresh air along the way. It's so relaxing. If you don't want to get too tired, taking the cable car directly to the top of the mountain is also super convenient. A round-trip ticket costs CHF 32. Remember to check the cable car operating hours on the official website in advance. Once you reach the top, be sure to visit the observation deck of the church or sit in the café. The magnificent mountain scenery is right in front of you, and any photo you take will be a hit on social media. Valle Verzasca: It takes about 1 hour to drive from Lugano. There is the emerald green Verzasca River, with crystal-clear water, and an ancient double-arched stone bridge full of historical charm. There are many hiking trails nearby, and walking among them feels like stepping into a landscape painting. On the way back, you'll pass the Diga Verzasca Dam, which became famous for the parachuting scene in the 007 movie "GoldenEye." Standing on the dam, you can admire its magnificent engineering design. Thrill-seekers can also book a bungee jump and feel the adrenaline rush! Lugano City: Take a walk along the lake in the city and feel the leisure and romance of this city. Especially in December, the Christmas atmosphere is super strong, with many unique stalls on the streets selling handicrafts, Swiss snacks, and mulled wine. Enjoy the food, pick out souvenirs, and have a cup of steaming mulled wine to warm yourself up. However, Lugano is already very cold in December, so be sure to dress warmly. Don't forget your hat, scarf, and gloves! Guys, add Lugano to your winter travel list and experience the unique charm of Switzerland in winter~
