Varese

Varese is an Italian municipality, capital of the province of the same name in Lombardy.
The characteristic appellation Garden City derives from the numerous parks and gardens found within the municipality, mostly appurtenances of villas built there between the 18th and early 20th centuries, first by noble families and more recently by industrialists and representatives of the upper middle class.

The city of Varese has a characteristic location at the foot of the Sacro Monte di Varese (in the Varese foothills of the Alps), which is part of the Campo dei Fiori and is home to an astronomical observatory as well as the prealpine geophysical center. The hamlet that occupies the middle part of the mountain is named Santa Maria del Monte because of the medieval sanctuary, which is reached via the avenue of chapels of Sacro Monte. Marking the lower edge of the city is the lake of the same name that laps it at the level of some hamlets.
Varese Garden City is the appellation that perfectly describes the combination of art and nature that, for several centuries, has characterized the soul of the city. Historic villas and parks to be discovered, enchanting landscapes to be admired, paths of faith and art to be traveled and evocative places that know how to amaze and excite. The cultural and environmental heritage is the most attractive value of the area, which is proposed through the beauty of unspoiled nature as a terrace between lakes and Pre-Alps.

Of particular historical and artistic interest is the Sacro Monte of Varese, an important complex conceived in the late 16th century by Giovanni Battista Aguggiari as an arrangement of the pre-existing pedestrian route to the sanctuary of Santa Maria del Monte. It is a sacred way of about two kilometers flanked by 14 votive chapels retracing the mysteries of the Rosary. Built starting in 1604 by Giuseppe Bernascone, since 2003 the complex has been included with the other nine sacred mounts of Piedmont and Lombardy on the UNESCO World Heritage list
Varese’s history also boasts excellence in sports (basketball, soccer, rowing, cycling) and industry (airplanes, motorcycles, footwear, briar pipes, kitchens).
In Varese, in the Montello district, is the Varese European School, founded in 1960; it is one of 14 European schools in the European Union, the only one in Italy.

Lake Maggiore is 64.37 km (40 mi) long, and 3 to 5 km (2 to 3 mi) wide, except at the bay opening westward between Pallanza and Stresa, where it is 10 km (6 mi) wide. It is the longest Italian lake, although Lake Garda has a greater area. Its mean height above the sea level is 193 metres; a deep lake, its bottom is almost everywhere below sea-level: at its deepest, 179 metres below. Its form is very sinuous so that there are few points from which any considerable part of its surface can be seen at a single glance. If this lessens the effect of the apparent size, it increases the variety of its scenery. While the upper end is completely alpine in character, the middle region lies between hills of gentler form, and the lower end advances to the verge of the plain of Lombardy. Lake Maggiore is the most westerly of the three great southern prealpine lakes, the others being Lake Como and Lake Garda.

The lake basin has tectonic-glacial origins and its volume is 37 cubic kilometres (9 cu mi). The lake has a surface area of about 213 square kilometres (82 sq mi), a maximum length of 54 km (34 mi) (on a straight line) and, at its widest, is 12 km (7 mi). Its main tributaries are the Ticino, the Maggia, the Toce (by which it receives the outflow of Lake Orta) and the Tresa (which is the sole emissary of Lake Lugano). The rivers Verzasca, Giona, and Cannobino also flow into the lake. Its outlet is the Ticino which, in turn, joins the river Po just south-east of Pavia.

The lake’s jagged banks are surrounded by the Pennine and Lepontine Alps, and Lugano Prealps. Prominent peaks around the lake are the Gridone, Monte Tamaro, Monte Nudo and the Mottarone. The highest mountain overlooking Lake Maggiore is Monte Rosa (4,634 m, 15,203 ft), located about 50 kilometres (31 mi) west of it. The western bank is in Piedmont (provinces of Novara and Province of Verbano-Cusio-Ossola) and the eastern in Lombardy (province of Varese), whereas the most northerly section extends 13 kilometres (8 mi) into the canton of Ticino, where it constitutes its lowest point above sea level as well as that of Switzerland. The culminating point of the lake’s drainage basin is the Grenzgipfel summit of Monte Rosa at 4,618 metres (15,151 ft) above sea level.
