Lugano’s tap water is famously excellent, and the many public fountains dotted (and half-hidden) around the city and lakefront are a genuine local treat on a summer day. Carry a bottle, skip the single-use plastic, and refill as you wander – some of the prettiest fountains are just outside the centre.
