Parco Scherrer

This park is located near Lake Lugano, and it was established by Hermann Arthur Scherrer, who dreamed since the thirties of the last century to create a magical place inspired by his travels around the world, so visitors will find in the park architectural and artistic works from different cultures around the world, There is a Siamese coffee shop, an Egyptian temple, and Greek sculptures. The garden 70 years ago, before Scherer bought it, was covered with vineyards and chestnut trees. After many years of work on it, it was filled with cypress trees, camellias, camphor plants, eucalyptus, rice, araucaria, palm trees and bamboo, which are exotic and oriental plants that Scherer admired during his travels.
