SWITZERLAND

Bellinzona in southern Switzerland is the capital of Ticino and is Italian-speaking. Its three fortresses are UNESCO world heritage sights, but its charm lies in its Italianate character. The Palazzo Civico dates from the renaissance but was demolished and rebuilt as new in the 1920's.
