Culture and sightseeing
Culturally, Ticino has a lot to offer. Bellinzona, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is very interesting; a walk through the old town and the castles should not be missed. In the largest town of Lugano the LAC Lugano Arte e Cultura art and culture centre is located on the lakeside. In Meride, a visit to the Museo dei fossili del Monte San Giogio is recommended. Here you can marvel at dinosaur fossils found on Mount San Giogio (also a UNESCO World Heritage Site).
