I traveled by train through Lugano from Milan to Stuttgart

This route runs between Italy and Germany through Switzerland, and the Swiss Federal Railways (SBB/CFF/FFS) and Germany's Deutsche Bahn (DB) are often its main operators, possibly in cooperation with Italy's Trenitalia. The scenery is truly beautiful.
