Livigno is a famous tourist resort in the Valtellina area, in the province of Sondrio, also known by the nickname "Little Tibet". It is a municipality located in the center of the Rhaetian Alps, between the Stelvio and the Bernina, crossed by the river Spöl which, after crossing the Swiss National Park converges into the waters of the Inn, a tributary of the Danube. It is not only the most northern town of Lombardy but also one of the few to be located at more than 1500 metres above sea level, the area of Livigno was inhabited since ancient times, particularly those most exposed to the sun. It obtained administrative autonomy from Bormio in 1816 and was proclaimed municipality. Livigno that already enjoyed the benefits of customs enshrined under the Napoleon and Austria dominations, continued the free sale of products not subject to taxation during the dominion of the Kingdom of Italy; In 1948 the constitutional law of the Italian Republic established a "duty free" zone. This gave way to the touristic development of the town, with the building of hotels, ski lifts and snow-park at the forefront, as well as a tax-free shopping area.

In addition to the typical local dwellings, known as "baits", other places of interest in Livigno are:
