The area of the lake is 146 kilometres, which makes it the 3rd largest lake in Italy after Lake Garda and Lake Maggiore and it is the fifth deepest lake in Europe. Como has been famous since the old ages where Celtic tribes settled there followed by the Roman Empire in the 1st century BC. If you are visiting Como, you will see its Roman origins in the orderly grid of streets of its historic centre.
2) Rome
Rome was founded in 753 B.C, by Romulus its first king. Romulus and Remus were the twin sons of Mars, the god of war. As babies they were left abandoned in a basket on the Tiber. Legend has it that a she-wolf rescued them and raised them, but when they grew up, Romulus killed Remus and became the first ruler of Rome. This is also how Rome got its name. Rome was built on seven hills, they were Palatine Hill, Aventine Hill, Capitoline Hill, Esquiline Hill, Viminal Hill, Caelian Hill and Quirinal Hill. They were known as the “Seven hills of Rome”.

It is a city world-famous for its contribution to art, literature, music, fashion, and it remains one of the world’s forerunners in education, research, finance, and healthcare.
