Arona can be found on the other side of the lake, a major port and one of the most populated towns on Lake Maggiore. Take a walk around the town and become familiar with the local culture and history: visit the old churches Chiesa di Sant’Anna e Gioacchino, Chiesa di San Giuseppe and Chiesa dei Santi Martiri, to name but a few. As you make your journey, you encounter Arona’s ancient town square, Piazza del Popolo, which was once the main marketplace. San Carlo Borromeo left an indelible mark on this land and two statues were dedicated to him: a tiny wooden one in the town and, just outside, the Colossus that is over 20 meters tall.
