You may say:
But Switzerland is landlocked! How can there be a Mediterranean region? You are correct in theory, but we are taking you to Ticino, Switzerlandâs southernmost canton. Sometimes a place is not defined by its location but more so by its atmosphere and flair. In that respect, Ticino definitely feels Mediterranean, as you will see when we take you to all the gorgeous places.
Ticino (Tessin) is surrounded on three sides by Italy, and it also comprises the Italian enclave of Campione dâItalia. The official language is Italian.
With a much milder climate than the rest of Switzerland and an average of 2,300 hours of sunshine annually, it definitely feels southern. In addition, although there are plenty of woods, palm trees are growing everywhere; in fact, they are taking over parts of the woods. Visit Lugano, Ticinoâs largest city, and the colorful houses, sub-tropical flora, and language will make you think you are indeed in a Mediterranean region.
