This small lakeside village on the western shore of Lake Maggiore in Switzerland's Italian-speaking canton of Ticino, Brissago sits right at the water with vineyards on the surrounding slopes, a handful of cafés and restaurants, and a striking number of churches for its size. It includes the Brissago Islands and borders Italy, with mountains close by and UNESCO World Heritage sites in the wider region.
