Locarno is enchanting with 2300 hours of sunshine per year and a lush subtropical vegetation, it is known as the Swiss town with the mildest climate. It is also a highly attractive place, especially at night, when the arcades and portici take on a dreamlike quality. Then it is easy indeed to loose ones heart to this picturesque little town. One of the most attractive spots is the Piazza Grande and right behind it lies the old part of town, la città vecchia.
