- Could Gandria be Switzerland’s perfect hidden gem village? Quite possible! Gandria is often overlooked, which is quite sad, because in fact it is one of the most beautiful villages of Switzerland. Gandria lays by lake Lugano in Ticino and charms with its unique appearance. Being built at the hill, Gandria is a hanging village, which makes it stand out from the many other beautiful Swiss villages. The village of Gandria is car-free; you may park your car a few hundred meters away from the entry or better arrive there by boat. Traveling to Gandria by boat is a very beautiful experience. As you are approaching Gandria, you will feel the excitement coming up. Having disembarked the ferry, go and explore the village. Gandria is full of narrow alleys. In contrast to Morcote, Gandria is quite a maze and you will soon realize that there are so many ways of how to explore the village. Thus, make sure to plan in at least 1 hour if not even 2 hours! A highlight of Gandria are not only the houses but also the decorated walls full of wisteria, these unique climbing plants with their purple to lilac blossoms. These you will get to see during April and May. Very beautiful is also the church of Gandria that charms with a wonderful interior. Climb the stairs to get a better view over the village and lake Lugano. From Gandria, you can see lake Lugano, and Monte San Salvatore. Unique about Gandria is also the fact that it is the last village before the boarder to Italy. If you would continue the road further you would arrive at Porlezza and further down at the Lago di Como. Gandria is perfect to combine with Lugano and a quick trip to lake Como.
There are many restaurants at where you can go for lunch at. They offer beautiful views over the lake and of course delicious dishes. A local specialty would be fish. If you have plenty of time, then take the boat from Lugano to Gandria, explore the village and then continue by ferry to Morcote, which is also one of the most beautiful villages of Switzerland.

I was there last month, it’s beautifully unique! Love everything about it!
@@etikwijaya5075 yippie. Ya Gandria is enchanting!
@@christyzhong4477 thats great. So happy to read that you enjoyed it
going in mid August as part of a trip to Lugano and Milan!
It’s a beautiful village, after visiting the village you can enjoy the nice scenery walking path that bring you back to Lugano, it’s a nice walk especially during sunset, thank you for your video, hope to visit again👍😊🥂
Hi. Yup, I heard the trail is very nice. I have never tried it yet but would love to once in the future!
The Olive Trail!! Amazing!
Lake Gandria is absolutely gorgeous,amazing and beautiful place to explore and discover...much love from the Philippines💓💓
Thanks to you, Djemo, we discovered the beautiful and typical Italian village Gandria. I enjoyed it a lot :)
Hiii. Happy to read that you enjoyed seeing Gandria😊🤗
Amazing village on the beautiful lake!! Thank you so much for taking us here and telling us about Gandria!! Love from Vermont
Hi Rebekah. My pleasure to show you Gandria. Its really a wonderful village😊
Du übertriffst dich selber noch von Film zu Film. Gandria! Eine wahre Perle, ist einige Jahre her, seit ich dort war, dein Film erweckt aber die Lust, da schnell mal wieder hinzufahren. Danke für deine ganz besonderen Schweiz-Bilder! Mercie vielmohl!
Hallo Diana. Wow! Vielen Dank für dieses nette Kompliment! Ja, Gandria ist wirklich eine Perle! Es lohnt sich glaube ich immer wieder mal dorthin zu fahren. Es war mir ein Vergnügen dieses Video zu produzieren^^
I discovered Gandria more than 20 years: ago Truly the gem of Switzerland.
Thats cool! I kept passing by Gandria for more than 25 years and always knew it only at the boundary to Italy. Finally, I made a visit to it. I bet arrival by boat is even better than going there by car
another amazing video! i love the italian influence in architecture you see in southern swiss towns.
Hi Fabio. Thank you! Yes, that's indeed very noticeable. The boarders aren't sharp, they are gradual.
You’re such an amazing travel vlogger! Great content, nice videos and sceneries. Keep them coming!
So fascinating to be from my 'less than exciting' region of America and to see that part of the world through your videos. As I've said before, thank you for the work you put in for the videos you share.
Hiii. Thank you very much. I am very happy to read that you enjoyed seeing Gandria :)
Mesmerizing Vlog👌We enjoyed it Gandria is really very beautiful. Thanks Djemo for exploring and explaining so nicely! May God bless you always❤❤🙏🙏
BEAUTIFUL SEE , VIEW IS GOOD👍

สวัสดี. ฉันยินดีที่จะนำเสนอวิดีโอนี้ ขอบคุณสำหรับความคิดเห็นที่ดีของคุณ
Great vid! So many beautiful places, so little time! would love to go on a sabbatical, and visit every single village you feature in your videos. They all look out of this world :)
Hi Tony. Thank you for your nice comment. I hope you can visit all of these nice villages! You will love them!😊🤗
Thank you for sharing with us another amazing place!
Hi brother Daniel. Thank you very much! When I come to Jerusalem, you will have to become part of my church video :)
That's so funny! When I lived in the Valais, I used to spend long weekends in Porlezza ... I know the lake quite well, but never stopped off in Gandria - totally missed this gem! Thank you for sharing!
Hi Gaby. That's interesting! Porlezza, I never stopped there yet but always passing by to head to Bellagio. Gandria is definitely worth a visit!
Thanks for sharing..will plan this for Ascension holidays
Hi. Thats surely a great idea. Be aware of the traffic jam at the Gotthard tunnel. Unless the pass is open already
@@DjemoGraphic Thnk you for the quick response and tips..I am definitely subscribing to your channel :))
Lodging with the best view...the most beautiful....
Wonderfull...
Thank you! I hope you can visit this place😊

Hi Markus! Happy to read you enjoyed seeing Gandria!
Love the videos you make. Bravo!
Hi Alex! Thank you!😊
Great video Djemo. A gorgeous location 🙂 A place to hide from the world!
Hi Andrew! Thank you very much for your nice comment! It's a great village to visit. Although, my video will promote Gandria, I am quite sure people are usually seeking the famous places like Lugano and Valle Verzasca instead :)
Amazing video brother! You’re always making me want to come back to Switzerland 🇨🇭
Hey Ryan. Thank you! Please do😊😊😊 waiting here
very good video. all your vids are really good.
Hi. Thank you very much! :)
Desanya sangat unik dan cantik.😍😍😍
Selamat sore Sumiranti. Terima kasih! Ya, ini adalah desa sangat indah dan kurang kenal.
Superb bro🇱🇰❤✌
Thank you!
Wow that is really a beautiful spot and the price is excellent. I work at an Inn in the US and $74.00 is the best business price per night. That would be great for someone wanting to explore see Switzerland as it looked in the past as well.
Hi Kevin. Yes, that hotel offers really great prices. Even best! The bed is soo comfortable. Simple but worth the money! Furthermore, Gandria is a true discovery for many who have been so far only to the touristy spots. Please visit some day :)
@@DjemoGraphic Hopefully my wife still has some aunts, uncles and cousins that still live in Switzerland
I will visit Switzerland for once in my life. InshaAllah.
Hi Raiyan. I hope you can visit Switzerland some day. BeEzrat HaShem🙏🏻
Thanks for sharing this absolutely wonderful video. What a lovely place. Really charming. Thanks for showing this beautiful village.
I know it's not d same, but somehow it reminds me of Hallstatt in Austria. But I think, this place in Switzerland is more beautiful.
What's that, 7:07, look like a dessert, is it Swiss?
By d way, if u don't mind, 70 or 80 Swiss francs is equivalent to USD?
It's Tiramisù :) With lemon
Yes, also a hanging village! True! Have you been there yet?
👌👌👌
:)
Lived in Lugano 2 years
Hi Henry. Wow! How was it?

Nice video, great place! Would 1 hour be enough to visit this village?
Hi. One hour should be enough. Id say 1.5 hours is just good, can have some refreshments at the restaurant too😊

Sawasdee krub!
What time of year was this trip? I am going to drive from Frankfurt to Milan in 2nd week of May. So i am trying to plan where to stay after interlaken
Hi Sohil. I went there during Mid-April. Tricky month, because the weather is not predictable. It was on the Easter weekend that is normally very busy because its a long weekend. A lot of traffic jam expected
@@DjemoGraphic Thank you for the reply! I love your videos! They really helped me plan my trip so far.
Now I just have to pray some pass roads open up earlier this year. Based on records Klausenpass will open either late or early May, so I hope its before the 12th lol
what is the name of the hotel, i cant understand... bukee?
Ristorante Le Bucce
Is it good in winter?
Not sure. Probably not the best place for Winter, life there will be dead.
Poor man s Belvedere ...
Can you please say again the name of the hotel that you said was $70-$80 a night? Thank you!
Hi Rose. Its called Ristorante Le Bucce😊✌🏼
@@DjemoGraphic Thank you so much! 😉
don't visit on a sunday! most everything is closed!
Are you sure the restaurants are closed???
It was part of Italy until the citizens decided to be part of Suiss by a referendum. The official language is Italian and the cuisine is North Italian.
Ma no, non e' mai stato Italia. E' sempre stato Svizzera. Ora e' un quartiere della Citta' di Lugano.
W la Svizzera!!!
hihi bro i miss u pls i wanna meet u.... just find me their ... via email
