Meeting at the station for the ascent where for 125 years the rack railway has departed from Capolago on Lake Lugano to reach the summit at 1704 m, travelling for 9 km along the picturesque mountain setting of the Monte Generoso natural park and reaching the “Fiore di pietra”, the new symbolic structure of Monte Generoso, is an impressive work that bears the unmistakable signature of Mario Botta. The world-famous architect is not only the author of the design of the imposing building, but also of the layout of the interior spaces. “Fiore di pietra” dominates the rocky edge of the mountain and offers a 360-degree view of a breathtaking panorama.
