Dolomites, Lakes, or Cinque Terre at Christmas in Italy?
I don't know where to spend the Holidays in Italy? On December 16, I have to leave Bergamo, and I can go one of three directions, all leading to different parts of Italy. Eventually I will see most of it, but it's where to go first, and specifically where to go during late December I'm concerned with.
After Bergamo, I can head
1) South to the Liguria coast, Cinque Terre, and up to Genoa
2) East to Brescia, Lake Garda, and up the Dolomite Alps to Trentino/Alto Adige, and on to Belluno before turning around (note: I don't like skiing, thought I love scenic photography)
3) West to Lecco, Como, Maggiore lake district
There you have it, three clear options. So where would you go first, and why? Thanks for sharing your thoughts.
Note: The two destinations that don't get picked will be seen in January.
