Bardolino, Italy
Bardolino is one of the best-known of the Lake Garda resorts, mainly due to the Bardolino wine made from the grapes grown in the vineyards on the surrounding hillsides. In fact the wine actually has its own Bardolino DOC as well as an annual Bardolino wine festival.
The resort is one of the more popular destinations on the southern end of the lake and and is located just to the south of Garda town on the other side of the La Rocca hill which separates the two towns.
What to see
Remnants of dwellings built by previous inhabitants long ago reveal that this village was originally used by fishermen. Later the suitable climate led to the production of red and rose wines as well the planting of the many olive groves. The olive trees are used for the manufacture of olive oil and cosmetic products.
There is actually an olive oil museum just to the south of Bardolino in Cisano.
