Manerba del Garda / Borgo di Gardoncino area
In his Divine Comedy, Dante tell us that in the North of beautiful Italy, there is a lake at the foot of the Alps: this is Lake Garda. With its waters surrounded by mountains, the lake offers enchanting scenery described by poets and writers. These lines by the Great Poet in Canto XX of the Inferno are dedicated to Virgil, who came from near Garda. The lake itself covers an entire region, with the western shore in Lombardy, the eastern side in Veneto and the north in Trentino. A lake capable of arousing deep emotion, an historic heritage and clear waters for sports enthusiasts.
Into the southern part of the lake projects the peninsula of Sirmione with the ruins of Catullu's (photo) Roman villa and the modern spa facilities. This peninsula is one of the main attractions for tourists from Italy and abroad, with its Congress Centre for major meetings and events and remains of great historical interest. An eventfull history, an important testimonial for that strip of land jutting out into the lake, like the meetings between the American poet Ezra Pound and the Irish writer James Joyce. In the background The Rocca of Manerba, natural park.
One of the many well-known personalities who lived on Lake Garda was Gabriele D´Annunzio. At his Vittoriale, his dreams came true, as his imagination and his love of life, story-telling and tranquillity were gives free rein in the peaceful setting only these shore can offer. According to D´Annunzio, there is nothing like the radiant piece of calm Garda, which gently cradles us, encouraging us in idleness. The Mausoleum (photo) where D´Annunzio is buried alongside his companions of adventure is a huge marble structure on the Cargnacco hill overlooking Lake Garda.

A holiday for all tastes. Lake Garda and the surrounding area offers a bit of everything and really knows show to attract the tourists. A lake amid towering mountains, lots of open green spaces, an endless source of amusements, exciting places of historical interest.
