Lugano, Switzerland c.1952

Lugano, Switzerland c.1952
Uploaded for the Vintage Photos Theme Park theme of: A SKYSCRAPER, ROW HOME, OR ANY OTHER TYPE OF BUILDING YOU MIGHT FIND IN A CITY
A hand colored postcard with fancy edges bought by my mother in 1952, on holiday from England.
The buildings, which look like homes and hotels, have been brightly colored.
The city is Lugano, the water is Lake Lugano, and the mountain is Monte San Salvatore. I like that you can see the lights going up the mountain.
I loved looking at this postcard as a child - it seemed like fairyland!
