“Surprise is often stirred in the soul because it struggles to reconcile what it sees with what it has seen. In Italy, there is a large lake called Lake Maggiore: it is a small sea, with entirely wild shores. In the middle of the lake, fifteen miles from the shore, there are two islands of a quarter league in circumference, called the ‘Borromean Islands,’ which, in my opinion, are the most enchanting place in the world. The soul is captivated by this romantic contrast, joyfully recalling the wonders of novels, in which, after traversing rocks and barren lands, one finds oneself in magical places” (Montesquieu).
A marvelous thought that, in a few words, captures the true essence of one of the most enchanting places in all of Italy. A place that captures not only the thoughts but also the soul of those who wisely choose to come here, to this corner of paradise, to revel before a scene painted by the skilled hand of nature.
