So it’s little wonder that this year Como has been ranked among the best cities to celebrate the New Year. Every year it holds the large-scale festival of Christmas lights, as well as fascinating landscapes of the mountains and the lake reflecting New Year’s lights illuminations will make you believe in miracles.
