The two aforementioned lakes are, of course, Garda and Iseo. Our journey begins and ends in the province of Brescia and will reveal the remarkable beauty of an area that has become a hugely popular tourist destination, thanks in no small part to its emphasis on natural beauty, aesthetic appeal and harmony, despite its heavily industrialised backdrop. In addition, this whole region boasts a broad network of services that are hard to parallel elsewhere. Integral to the tourism experience are the historical residences, which serve both as attractions and as venues for visits and overnight stays. The adventure begins at Lake Garda. Or, to be more specific, an island actually on Lake Garda.<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.dimorestoricheitaliane.it\/en\/structures\/isola-del-garda\/\"><strong>Isola Borghese Cavazza<\/strong><\/a>, also known as Isola del Garda, is accessible from San Felice del Benaco on the Brescian side of the lake. It was inhabited for almost six centuries by Franciscan friars before transitioning through various owners to the Cavazza family. Its charming allure lies primarily in the stunning Venetian neo-Gothic architecture designed by Luigi Rovelli in the early 20th century, its picturesque location and the beautifully curated garden filled with local and exotic plants, rare species and unique flowers. Visitors can tour the island, the entrance fee including the boat ride to and from San Felice, a guided tour of the gardens and parts of the villa, plus a complimentary welcome drink. The venue is available for rental for weddings and corporate gatherings, with additional catering options.<br \/>\nJust a stone\u2019s throw away from San Felice is the beautiful historic centre and its Duomo, while of particular note is the scenic lakeside promenade at Sal\u00f2, the main town on the western side of Lake Garda, and neighbouring Gardone Riviera. The latter has become a favoured tourist spot largely because of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vittoriale.it\/en\">Vittoriale degli Italiani<\/a> museum complex. The project, conceived by Gabriele D\u2019Annunzio and designed by architect Giancarlo Maroni, represents a monument to the life and ideals of this poet, journalist and patriot, while also honouring the achievements of Italian soldiers during World War I. In recent years, meanwhile, Gardone has emerged as a gastronomic destination, largely thanks to the fine dining offered by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ristorantelido84.com\/en\/home-2\/\">Lido 84<\/a>, the acclaimed restaurant run by the Camanini brothers, which currently holds the title of the best Italian restaurant and ranks twelfth globally according to The World\u2019s 50 Best Restaurants list. Discerning travellers wishing to experience exceptional hospitality could elect to stay at one of the designer villas at <a href=\"https:\/\/eden-reserve-hotel.com\/\">Eden Reserve<\/a>, located in a panoramic spot just a short distance from the Vittoriale, which provides luxurious suites, private villas and outstanding culinary options. Next, head further south towards Moniga, where you can visit an esteemed winery called <a href=\"https:\/\/costaripa.it\/mattia-vezzola\/?lang=en\">Costaripa<\/a>, owned by sparkling wine expert Mattia Vezzola, who has had a significant influence in the Valt\u00e8nesi region and has changed the course of its history with his classic wine-making methods. Bidding farewell to the lake at Padenghe, make a stop at the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.museoabbaziamaguzzano.it\/en\/\">Abbey of Maguzzano<\/a> \u2013 be sure to take a look at the Abbot&#8217;s bedroom to appreciate a cell that was worthy of a Renaissance prince even in this context! \u2013 and then proceed to Lonato, where the second historical home on our list is located. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dimorestoricheitaliane.it\/en\/structures\/casa-del-podesta\/\"><strong>Casa del Podest\u00e0<\/strong><\/a>, the Magistrate\u2019s House, was the official residence of the representative tasked with overseeing the territory for Venice, which governed the territory for more than 350 years. After being abandoned, it was eventually purchased at a public auction in 1906 by Ugo Da Como, a liberal lawyer and deputy, who restored the building to its former glory, transforming it into a house-museum. Today, it hosts private events and ceremonies while remaining open for public tours, allowing visitors to explore the Casa-Museo del Podest\u00e0\u2019s library, Rocca and the Civic Ornithological Museum.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This itinerary crosses from one lake to another, passing through a city that is pivotal [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":8,"featured_media":27710,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[492,564],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-28188","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-lombardia-en","category-territories"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.9 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Lombardy - From Lake Garda to Lake Iseo via Brescia and Franciacorta | Dimore Storiche Italiane<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dimorestoricheitaliane.it\/en\/from-lake-garda-to-lake-iseo-via-brescia-and-franciacorta\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Lombardy - From Lake Garda to Lake Iseo via Brescia and Franciacorta | Dimore Storiche Italiane\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"This itinerary crosses from one lake to another, passing through a city that is pivotal [&hellip;]\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/www.dimorestoricheitaliane.it\/en\/from-lake-garda-to-lake-iseo-via-brescia-and-franciacorta\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Dimore Storiche Italiane\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2024-11-04T13:13:30+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2024-11-28T13:15:13+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/www.dimorestoricheitaliane.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/5_Lago_Iseo_canoa_sponda_occidentale.jpg\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"1400\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"932\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/jpeg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Alessandro D&#039;Agostino\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Written by\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"Alessandro D&#039;Agostino\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:label2\" content=\"Est. reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data2\" content=\"4 minutes\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"Article\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/www.dimorestoricheitaliane.it\/en\/from-lake-garda-to-lake-iseo-via-brescia-and-franciacorta\/#article\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/www.dimorestoricheitaliane.it\/en\/from-lake-garda-to-lake-iseo-via-brescia-and-franciacorta\/\"},\"author\":{\"name\":\"Alessandro D'Agostino\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/www.dimorestoricheitaliane.it\/en\/#\/schema\/person\/44c5fbb58a9ff02a18beac7215decfd7\"},\"headline\":\"Lombardy &#8211;
