Inverigo

Inverigo is a village in the Province of Como in Lombardy. It is on the border of the land of Brianza. Inverigo has a really beautiful castle, but now you can't visit because somebody bought it. You can visit the "viale dei cipressi", an old road filled of cypress; every spring many people comes here. Also the "Tenuta di Pomelasca" is really interesting, it is an old villa with gardens and churches.
