Salò
Lombardia
Salò is elegance made city: its lakefront, the longest on Lake Garda with nearly a kilometer of promenade, is lined with stately palaces, sophisticated boutiques, and historic cafes where time seems to slow down.
The late Gothic cathedral, with its unfinished facade and art-rich interior, dominates the main square. The historic center is a succession of arcades, artisan stores, and gourmet restaurants that make it the gastronomic capital of the Brescian shore.
MuSa, Museum of Salò, tells the story of the city from prehistory to the 20th century with modern and interactive displays.
