Palazzo Borromeo

Isola Madre also has a Palazzo on it. It's less spectacular than the one on Isola Bella, but it has a lot of cool old furnishings. For whatever reason, there were multiple puppet theaters. Some were whole room sized, some were just medium large. This one was meant to represent hell. A lot of the puppets were really creepy.

Some of the rooms were less creepy! There were a few cool reception rooms with Murano chandeliers. This room had a garden theme with painted vines up the walls.

After finishing up touring the villa, I headed out on the ferry.
