Hi Frank,
We, too, love Lago di Orta. The Sacro Monte was disappointing in a lot of
ways. It is a gorgeous site with beautiful views and from a distance the
individual buildings look intriguing. The interiors were a mess. I don't
know whether they had just been left to decay or if there had been
vandalism but after about the first three we didn't even bother to get
closer. There was quite a story to tell there but so much was missing that
we were unable to understand it. I can only imagine what it once must have
been.
Take care,
Janet
