MILAN AND LOMBARDIA TRAVEL INFORMATION AND TOURISM SUGGESTIONS
The Gallic or Celtic tribes of the Po Valley were the first inhabitants of today's Lombardia to have left a long lasting mark.
Many of the region's towns and cities can trace their origins and names to this pre-Roman period e.g. Bergamo, Como, Milan or Mediolanum.
Roman Transpadana eventually gave way to the Gothic invasions of the 5th century AD, before the Longobards made their capital at Pavia to give us Longobardia.
All roads point to Milan these days but each of the minor centres is fantastically rich in art, history and culture.
Vigevano has one of the most beautiful squares of the whole Renaissance period, while Cremona gave us Stradivari and his violins.
Motor racing fans should head to Brescia, starting point of the annual Mille Miglia classic car race, and Mantova, birthplace of Tazio Nuvolari.
The north of the region is all lake and mountains. Como, Lecco, Cenobbio and Bellagio are the main centers on Lake Como. Lake d'Iseo is east of Bergamo and Sirmione sits on the west bank of Lake Garda where the towns of Salò and Gardone Riviera are also situated.

Guide to Lake Como
The town of Como was originally a Celtic or Gallic border outpost linking Italy to Switzerland and northern Europe. The Romans got there in 196 BC and cleverly kept much of it the same, renaming it Novum Comum. From then the place has never looked back. Today, it is home to 83,000 people and combines its industry, art, recreation and historical activities effortlessly. Head to the 'Cortesella', the old commercial heart of the town since 1800. The silk industry was one of the first to be industrialised and visitors should beat a path to the Museo Didattico della Seta-Fondazione Setificio…Last modified on 31 July 2012
