The Parco Ciani is the green lung of the city of Lugano. Not far from the city center, on the banks of the Ceresio, extends an area of 63,000 square meters, crossed by shady paths under hundred-year-old trees and between flower beds, green meadows, small resting places. Statues and fountains embellish the walking paths, appreciated by the locals as well as the tourists, who admire the colorful flowers, the majestic trees of rare and exotic species and the play of light and shadow of the vegetation. The historic Villa Ciani is splendid.
