Lugano is a city that is very much controlled in every way, especially in terms of security. I was born there and personally, I have never had any problems or fear of being harassed or robbed. Also because there is always someone around or who hears you and is ready to help in such cases. I hope I can convey the same sense of security to you.

It’s a small city, very beautiful in the summer. A lot of public transposition to get to wherever you want but you can also walk almost everywhere. Very safe and there is a very reliable police sistem

We went to the concert of Einaudi. It was beautifull. City also. It’s not so easy to find places for swimming. You have a little beach. The enviroment is beautifull. In half an hour you are in Italy & you can visit another lake

I would recommend Lugano, Switzerland for the beautiful places it has, specially if you find someone to show you around,I was lucky enough to have a friend who took me there and done a trip on the mountains, the view towards the lake was spectacular! The food also very good!
