Limone

Limone is the name of the place where we will be based when we are in Lake Garda, Italy. In Italian it translates to be lemon which probably give you a bit of an idea about the place. Bot others say that the town name is taken from a latin word being border. So hence the town hides itself around the cliff with citrus trees on the terraces. It looks on to the lake Garda with stunning views. Just outside is the mountain region which you will see olive grooves. It is here that the extra virgin olive oil is made.
Beside there being the agriculture, the town used to be a fishing village before its transformation into a tourist resort. If you go to Limone you will see many old fisherman cottages about.
Looking at the architecture of the town you will see that the first church built in Limone was a Romanic church. The town is also the birthplace of the Roman Catholic Missionary Daniele Comboni. He had real passion for the Africa and really tried to involve the whole catholic church in his missionaries pursuit.
