Orta is a small medieval village, a tiny 'pearl' where time flows slowly and unchanging, and every corner vibrates with beauty and poetry.
The island of San Giulio
A gateway to heaven
Legend has it that the island was once inhabited by dragons and serpents until Saint Giulio, after crossing the lake's waters on his cloak, landed here and built his 'centenary' church, the eponymous Basilica that houses the memories of saints and precious artistic treasures.
The Sacro Monte
