the exhibitions showing at Milan’s Palazzo Reale will be devoted to two important 20th century figures, the embodiment of different expressions of the avant-garde movement. The first includes a major retrospective dedicated to Carlo Carrà, one of the leading exponents of Futurism and Metaphysics.

While the story of Pablo Picasso, a true master of contemporary art, is told from an unusual perspective, highlighting his extensive, multi-faceted relationship with myth and antiquity. The exhibition features works by the famous artist showcased alongside the drawings and works of the ancient art from which he drew inspiration.

IMMERSIVE ART

Milan’s best cultural offerings this autumn include a new multimedia experience - an unmissable blend of innovative technology and entertainment.

JANUARY The exhibition, hosted at the Museo della OCTOBER 2019 2018 Permanente, includes the reproduction of 50 works

by Caravaggio that have never been viewed by the public, because they are generally housed in private venues, or considered too fragile to travel. Thanks to the use of state-of-the-art projection mapping, visitors will be treated to a 45-minute tour focusing on the ‘hidden’ aspects of the life and career of the famous Lombardy artist.

BEYOND THE HUMAN BODY

▼ Great opening in Milan today! Real Bodies, the exhibition that captivated the public two years ago, is back in a totally revamped version. Highlights include 50 bodies and 450 human organs preserved thanks to a OCTOBER special technique known as plastination (that prevents the decomposition of tissues and organs), plus numerous innovations. These include human remain inspired by drawings by Leonardo da Vinci, a workshop on the comparative anatomy of the animal kingdom and a section focusing on biomechanics featuring athletes frozen in athletic poses demonstrating the body’s complex skeletal and muscular system. The exhibition is further enhanced by multimedia technology and thematic exhibition areas dedicated to disease prevention, the fight against reconstructive surgery and more.

By Elena Binda

Making comparisons between Milan and Roma is like a board game for Italians, where the excitement is heightened by playful rivalry. Rome is recognized for history, politics and its ‘great beauty’, while Milan is acknowledged for design, fashion, modernity and efficiency. If you’re a fashion blogger you come to Milan, while if you’re interested in archaeology you go to Rome without a second thought. True or False?

Although nothing can really compete with

MUSEUM AND ARCHAEOLOGICAL PARK The best place to start your tour is the Civic Archaeological Museum of Milan, housed in the former convent of the Monastero Maggiore di San Maurizio (www.museoarcheologicomilano.it). If you want to learn more about the layering of the city and discover what Mediolanum looked like in AD 1, you’ll find scale models, information panels and an extensive collection of artefacts here. The Museum also provides visitors with information regarding the habits and customs of the ancient Romans, through reconstructions and educational areas.

Officially founded in 1862, it is headquartered in the convent in corso Magenta because, as shown by the excavations, this was the heart of Mediolanum. In days gone by, the area housed a Roman villa dating back to the 1st century, the Maximian walls and the Roman circus, which was built after this, opposite the imperial palace at the end of the 3rd century.

In the courtyard of the museum, you can still see the bell tower of the church of San © SHUTTERSTOCK

promoting ‘Roman Milan’, giving visibility to individual attractions, creating itineraries, restoring and opening forgotten ruins to the public, and creating an archaeological park, that is well worth a visit.

Expand your horizon to encompass Early Christian Milan; when Christians in the late Roman Empire could practice their religion freely. Don’t forget that the famous ‘Edict of Milan’, a proclamation made by Emperor Constantine which permanently established religious tolerance for Christianity within the Roman Empire, was issued in 313 AD in Milan, a city that upholds the ideals of openness and tolerance to this day.

Rome, an ‘open air museum’, it would be a mistake to underestimate the history of Milan. Milan, called Mediolanum in ancient times, was an important city in the Roman Empire, and for over a century it was actually the capital of the Roman Empire. Although the city has preserved numerous interesting artifacts that testify to its glorious past, many are hidden or buried underground. However, over the past few years, the city’s local administration has been working towards

Maurizio. This was originally a 14-metre tower, from which the chariots used to race in the circus. In recent times, the Archaeological Museum was renovated and enlarged, with the addition of new museum spaces in via Nirone, which can be accessed via a walkway that leads from a cloister in the museum and crosses through the Roman walls, highlighting their sizeable remains.

Another must-visit site for those wishing to learn more about Roman Milan is the Archaeological Park of the Amphitheatre, with the adjacent Antiquarium, which can be accessed from via De Amicis, in the Porta Ticinese district (www.parcoanfiteatromilano. beniculturali.it). Opened in 2004, the park, a relaxing green space in the centre of the city, hosts the remains (surprisingly only

Torre di Anferto

unearthed in 2000) of the city’s ancient Roman amphitheatre. Mediolanum’s Arena, dating back to the 2nd and 3rd centuries AD, was even larger than the Arena of Verona.

However, the complex known as the ‘Arena Civica’ in viale Byron, is a 19th century building that has nothing to do with Roman Milan.

Although the imposing oval-shaped Roman building was destroyed in the 6th century, excavations were finally able to demonstrate its importance. It could seat up to 20,000 spectators and was fitting for the role played by the city during the days of the Roman Empire. The adjacent Antiquarium, housing other finds of antiquity, is named after Alda Levi, the Italian archaeologist who fought for the recovery of Lombardy’s historic heritage. As a woman and a Jewess, she lost

A contemporary Calidarium If you’re looking for a Roman-style bath and spa experience, look no further. In piazza Medaglie d’Oro, in the heart of the Porta Romana district (which is confusing since it has nothing to do with the Roman era), you’ll find a wellness centre featuring open-air baths surrounded by an ancient wall. The wall dates back to the 16th century, and the real Roman baths were located in a completely different area. However, whichever way you look at it, the effect is remarkable: www.qcterme.com.

her job in 1938 due to the shameful racial laws introduced by Fascism. The park was dedicated to her, restoring her reputation, and pays tribute to her invaluable work.

SCATTERED REMAINS Approximately twenty archaeological sites can be visited in Milan (several of which are only accessible on request). Standouts are the walls, and although only a few sections of the circle erected in 49 BC remain, we know that the walls demarcated an area of approximately 80 hectares, much smaller than the present city and corresponding to a portion of the modern centre. One of the ancient towers can still be seen in via Carrobbio, while a piece of the original Roman walls was incorporated into a private building in via San Vito (located

behind via Torino, at street number 26)! The same is true of via del Lauro (at street number 7, near Teatro alla Scala), where the remains of a quadrangular tower can be found. In via Brisa, just a short distance from Castello Sforzesco, the sizeable remains of an Imperial Palace built by Maximian were unearthed.

Based on the ruins, it’s easy to see that this was once a sumptuous building, equipped with every comfort, including heating. Not far from here, at no. 4 via dei Bossi, you can see the remains of an old warehouse built, at the same time, in a decentralized area of the city!

The only remaining evidence of Mediolanum’s Forum, the heart of political, religious and administrative functions in all Roman cities, is part of the flooring, which can be admired by visiting the Crypt of San Sepolcro, a part of the complex of the Veneranda Biblioteca Ambrosiana (www.ambrosiana.eu). In the underground areas of Milan’s Stock Exchange and Chamber of Commerce, you can still see the remains of the ancient Theatre (a different building from the amphitheatre, which is a part of the aforementioned Archaeological Park), while the spectacular floors of several domus are still visible in private buildings in via Amedei (street numbers 4-6) and in via Nerino (street number 12). The entire area, up to piazza Missori (home to one of the most important early Christian places of worship), abounds with recognizable Roman remains.

THE DUOMO AND THE BASILICAS However, several of the city’s most surprising finds are housed in the city’s most important religious buildings. Although the Duomo, Milan’s imposing Gothic cathedral needs no introduction, not everyone knows that from its interior visitors can access a real subterranean archaeological area dating back to the late Roman era. From the earliest centuries, the area was home to numerous religious buildings, many of which were commissioned and frequented by Sant’Ambrogio, a key figure of early Christianity. Another of Milan’s most important and revered churches, the Basilica di Sant’Ambrogio is, in fact, dedicated to him.

Here, even older remains can be found in the underground areas of this medieval church.

The same applies to San Simpliciano and Sant’Eustorgio, which houses a beautifully preserved early Christian apse. Also particularly noteworthy is San Lorenzo in the Porta Ticinese area. In addition to the church, which was also built on the remains of a previous building, this area of the city is renowned for the Colonne di San Lorenzo (the Columns of San Lorenzo). Although the complex has been partially rebuilt, and the place bears little or no resemblance to its Roman predecessor, the colonnade is one of Milan’s best-loved symbols and a site that is often used for bacchanalias reminiscent of Roman times.

The experience of the ‘Last Supper’ allows visitors to investigate and discover details and colours now lost from the famous wall painting in the refectory of the church of Santa Maria delle Grazie in Milan.

This is the only place in the world where visitors can see a reconstruction of the ‘Last Supper’ as it was 500 years ago when Leonardo painted it, offering them a chance to see all the colours and details that were irreparably lost, providing viewers with a better understanding of the original.

Unique in Italy. With 900,000 visitors, the exhibition is produced by the Leonardo3 (L3) Research Center. All interactive experiences are in English, and Italian and the contents are accessible to an international public, with audio guides also available in Italian, English, Russian, German, French, Spanish, Portuguese and Chinese.

Enjoy the shopping world at the Franciacorta Outlet Village

Located on the outskirts of Brescia, just a few kilometers from Milan, Franciacorta is at its most evocative in autumn. After the ‘vendemmia’ (grape harvest), the landscape is transformed into a warm patchwork of colours and the area becomes a go-to destination for fun and shopping. More than 160 Italian and international brands welcome visitors along wide pedestrian streets, protected by elegant arcades. For clothing Tommy Hilfiger, Doriani Cashmere, Angelico, Beretta, Brooks Brothers, Gant, K-Way, Partrizia Pepe, Pinko, Ixos, Twin-Set and more; for a sporty look Under Armour, Plein Sport, Adidas, Nike, General Store, New Balance-Superdry, The North Sails and Salomon; for footwear and accessories Tru Trussardi, Pollini, Borbonese, Braccialini, Baldinini, Loriblu, Alberto Guardiani, Roncato, Piquadro, plus numerous other brands. Noteworthy new openings include Flavio Castellani, Caractère, Lovable and Parah, and several new shops are scheduled to open.

The Village can be accessed from Milan via a convenient Shopping Shuttle that departs daily from at 10.30am and returns at 6.30pm (€20 booking on line: www.zaniviaggi.it) from Largo Cairoli. Travelers on the Shopping Shuttle will be eligible to receive a One Day Card, a loyalty card offering additional discounts on outlet prices. The outlet also offers visitors an opportunity to visit one of the region’s fabulous local wineries aboard the Shopping Shuttle. Highlights include a guided tour of the winery, a wine tasting session and a chance to meet the winemakers and learn about the process (€49). October’s winery of the month is the Castelveder wine estate in Monticelli Brusati.

Tax Free Refund Guide 1. VAT (in Italian: IVA) is a value added tax on goods and services, and is part of the European Union’s value added tax system.

2. In some cases, travellers may be granted a VAT refund. This refund does not cover the services supplied by hotels, restaurants, taxis or agencies.

3. You may be eligible for a VAT refund provided that: • you are a non-EU resident; • the goods purchased are intended for personal or family use only and are carried in your luggage; • the overall value of the goods purchased exceeds 154,94 Euro (VAT included); • the purchase is certified by an invoice. This invoice should include a description of the goods purchased, your personal information as well as the details of your passport or any other equivalent document; • the goods leave EU territory by the end of the third month after the month that you bought them; • several specific customs formalities are complied with; • the invoice is returned to the Italian retailer within four months after the purchase was made.

4. The goods purchased and the relevant invoice must be shown at the customs exit point when leaving EU territory (if you intend to pack the purchased items into your check-in luggage, you must go to Customs BEFORE checking in).

5. After leaving EU territory, the traveller must return the original invoice, regularly endorsed by the customs office, to the Italian retailer. Said invoice must be returned within four months from the date when the document was issued.

6. The refund can be made directly by the Italian retailer (however, make sure that the shop you’ve chosen displays a “Tax Free Shopping” or “Euro Tax Free” sign in its window).

7. Several Tax-Free companies are able to offer immediate VAT cash refunds when the goods leave either Italian or EU territory (thus exonerating the passenger from having to return the invoice to the retailer). However, this procedure only applies at major international airports or main border crossings.

Most major department stores have Tax Free Refund offices.

8. The services provided by Tax-Free companies imply the payment of a small administrative sum which is directly deducted from the amount of VAT refunded to the traveller.

9. In the event of a traveller not receiving a VAT refund within a reasonable period of time, he or she should re-contact the Italian retailer or one of the aforementioned companies.

10. However, please note, VAT cannot be refunded directly by customs offices.

Vacheron Constantin

In the footsteps of Venetian merchants

The Merchant of Venice is a sophisticated brand of artistic perfumery inspired by the city of Venice and its old-age trade with the East. Characterized by a unique philosophy, the brand offers a wide range of products, all contained in exquisite bottles, including the new fragrances of the Murano Collection. Its concept is deeply rooted and inspired by the rich history of Venice. Between the 14th and 17th centuries, as a result of the development of its trade routes, which allowed Venice to import goods from the Far East and sell them throughout Europe, the Lagoon city became Europe’s most important maritime power.

Inspired by the routes to Byzantium, China, Africa and Spain, every fragrance in this line celebrates one of the routes opened up by Venetian merchants, evoking their essence and scents. The collection includes Andalusian Soul, a bewitching fragrance infused with notes of Mediterranean herbs and Malaga wine (see photo), and Mystic Incense, whose scent evokes the atmosphere of ancient Syria. www.themerchantofvenice.com Via Brera, 4.

Gucci Known as the ‘living room’ of Milan, the Galleria links Piazza del Duomo to piazza della Scala. For the past 150 years, it has been a meeting place for the Milanese and their guests; this explains why the venues overlooking the Galleria are go-to destinations for those wishing to soak up the atmosphere of the city.

A few years ago it has regained its former splendor, thanks to important renovation works which has also seen the re-opening of its upper floors: new spaces for events, cafés and eateries.

SHOPPING AT THE TOP From the iconic Prada store to Versace’s latest gem, it’s impossible not to remain awestruck by the

48 W H E R E M I L A N I O C TO B E R 2018

collections showcased in these spaces that tend to resemble museums rather than shops! In the Galleria, haute couture takes centre stage. In addition to the aforementioned Prada and Versace, other standouts include Louis Vuitton, Gucci, Armani, Borsalino, Luisa Spagnoli, Bric’s, Tod’s, Stefanel and Massimo Dutti alternated with historic workshops (whose signs serve as an indication of their storied past), including Cadè (shirts and ties since 1926), Piumelli, renowned for its handmade gloves, Mejana, purveyors of time-honoured fountain pens and historic bookstores: Libreria Bocca, for art lovers and the Libreria Rizzoli Galleria: three floors all dedicated to the printed word!

DINING AND GOURMET You say ‘aperitivo’ and you immediately think

Rimowa

of Camparino in Galleria, a landmark location and a reference point where Milan’s elite meet to partake in one of Italy’s oldest social traditions! Carlo Cracco’s new locale is spread over four floors and focuses on an opulent aesthetic and culinary offerings, from breakfast to post-theatre dining. For those in search of a taste of tradition, located just nearby is Luini (renowned for its one-of-a-kind “panzerotti”). Conversely, those favouring a more sought-after gourmet experience can either opt to eat at Ristorante Galleria where you enjoy a taste of Milanese food and hospitality (for generations, the Galli family has defined Milanese hospitality in the Galleria!), at Ristorante Savini, one of Milan’s most iconic landmark restaurants, or at the Marchesi alla Scala restaurant lying adjacent to Teatro alla Scala. And then again, if your idea of bliss is an unrivalled view over piazza Duomo a surefire choice is Giacomo Arengario, the restaurant of the Museo del Novecento.

AROUND THE CORNER If after visiting all the boutiques in the Galleria, you still haven’t had your fill of shopping, we recommend several truly unique addresses located just a stone’s throw away. For the ultimate one-stop shopping experience look no further than the Rinascente flagship store (under the arcades): an amazing array of fashion items under just one roof! Just a little further on, the window displays of Rocca 1794 will seduce you with their collections of several of the world’s most desirable jewelry and watch brands. A reference point in Milan for the best Made in Italy cuts is Valli Tessuti Alta Moda, with the perfect fabrics to make elegant outfits. And don’t miss the Stefano Ricci Italian luxury boutique for men in search of a total look exuding elegance.

Outliving (in via Agnello) offers a storefront packed with items for outdoor living, leisure time, holidays, travel and the home… and, if after all of this you realize that you might have gone over the top with your purchases and thus need an extra suitcase, Rimowa Store Milano (in piazza San Fedele) offers some of the best travel luxury in the industry!

A reference point for antique lovers, Brera boasts numerous antique shops and art galleries. Among these, Pettinaroli, just relocated from its historic headquarters near the Duomo to no. 4 via Brera, offers a wide selection of maps and antique prints.

THE PERFUME DISTRICT At no. 4, we find the new The Merchant of Venice boutique, an historic perfumery epitomizing the art of Venetian perfumemaking offering a luxury line encompassing a wide range of exclusive perfumes for men and women contained in elegant bottles inspired by the tradition of the city’s famous hand-blown Murano glass (www.themerchantofvenice.com).

Asian food with an unexpected twist Giulia Liu’s dream of building a bridge between the East and the West resulted in the creation of Gong, a restaurant offering Asian cuisine infused with a contemporary international flavour. By Chiara Zaccarelli

hen you enter Gong’s elegant dining room, the first thing you notice are the two huge onyx gongs that give the restaurant its name and transport you into a Far Eastern atmosphere. At this modern temple of degustation, amidst glass walls, dim lighting and an open-plan kitchen, East and West, past and present, tradition and innovation meet. The cuisine has a multi-cultural feel, which begins with the authentic flavours of age-old Chinese culinary tradition, and is gradually enhanced with contemporary, internationally influenced dishes. In the kitchen, the venue’s longtime chef Keisuke Koga infuses his offerings with typically Asian techniques, while the young Guglielmo Paolucci represents the creativity and sophistication of European cuisine.

52 W H E R E M I L A N I O C TO B E R 2018

Even the team working in the kitchen is multi-ethnic, with members from China, the Philippines and Japan. Each one plays a specific role, contributing to the creation of a menu featuring a harmonious kaleidoscope of aromas and flavours. In addition to typically Chinese dishes, including Singapore rice spaghetti, Peking Duck, Xiao long bao, Gong’s creative team of chefs continues to turn out innovative dishes including gourmet dim sum, a ceviche of Asian-style sea bass, Piccione sulla Via della Seta (pigeon breast pan-sauteed in butter and herbs, served with red turnips marinated in tosazu vinegar, and a cream of pain d’épice and foie gras), or crunchy pork belly, glazed with char siu sace served with a cream of smoked cauliflower and pollen.

Picasso and the Minotaur Palazzo Reale will stage an exhibition dedicated to the extensive, multi-faceted relationship that the Spanish genius developed with myth and antiquity during his extraordinary career. By Elena Peverata

T

he Minotaur; centaurs and fauns; war and passion. These are just a few of the themes illustrating Pablo Picasso’s fascination with the mythology, epics and representation of the classical world; themes that recur throughout his long and complex creative narrative. Antiquity in all its forms is interpreted in the mythologies re-invented by the Spanish artist, and featured in the six sections of the exhibition scheduled to open in mid-October at Palazzo Reale.

The exhibition features approximately 200 works with paintings by Picasso and works of ancient art including pottery, vases, statues, votive plaque, reliefs, idols and memorial stones, all of which deeply inspired and influenced him.

58 W H E R E M I L A N I O C TO B E R 2018

The precious artifacts and works displayed are on loan from the Musée National Picasso, and other important European museums; the Louvre in Paris, the Vatican Museums in Rome, the National Archaeological Museum in Naples, the Musée Picasso in Antibes, the Musée des Beaux-Arts in Lyon, Centre Pompidou in Paris, the Musée de l’Orangerie in Paris and the Museu Picasso in Barcelona.

‘If all the ways I have been along were marked on a map and joined up with a line, it might represent a Minotaur.’ Based on this quotation, the aim of the exhibition is to offer visitors insight into the creativity of the famous Spanish genius, attempting to reveal the mechanisms that have placed antiquity at the heart of some of the most influential art of the 20th century.

The Shoah Memorial of Milan is located in an area under the railway tracks of the Central Station, where mail was loaded and offloaded. This was the place where, between 1943 and 1945, sheltered from preying eyes, thousands of Jews and political deportees were loaded onto freight cars, via an elevator platform that was used to lift such cars up to the main platform. These transports were then connected to convoys leaving for Auschwitz-Birkenau and other German camps, or Italian camps such as Fossoli and Bolzano. Among all the places used as deportation sites in Europe, the Memorial is the only one that has remained intact. Today it is a commemorative place that honours the victims of the mass extermination, and also represents a ‘living, educational memorial’ where people can actively experience the tragedy of the Shoah.

More than 100,000 visitors, including 60,000 students, have had a chance to experience and gain insight into this place of enormous existential and emotional significance.

Lake Como, Villa del Balbianello

Dream lakes

T

he shores of Lago Maggiore wash up on the banks of Piedmont and Lombardy in Italy, while its more austere northern basin lies in the mountainous region of Switzerland. The most famous island, lying just off Stresa – a small, elegant town and a shopping mecca – is Isola Bella, anchored like a fantastic ship-garden and dominated by the majestic Palazzo Borromeo, built in the 17th century and rich in art treasures.

The Borromeo clan also owned Rocca di Angera, an imposing fortress (12th-17th century) boasting opulent ambiences, of which the most famous is the Sala di Giustizia. The “Rocca” also has a medieval garden (Visits daily from 9am-5.30pm. www.isoleborromee.it). The new “Lago Maggiore Express” now also offers 64 W H E R E M I L A N I O MC AYTO2017 B E R 2018

daily excursions by train and boat from Milan (www.trenord.it/it/free-time).

Lake Como is the romantic and worldly older sister of Maggiore and Garda and takes its name from the city of Como. “Must-visit” sights include the Gothic Duomo, the Romanic basilicas of San Fedele and Sant’Abbondio and the neoclassic Villa Olmo. Nestling on the banks of Lake Como in Lenno and currently owned by FAI – a private non-profit trust – Villa del Balbianello is a magnificent example of a perfectly preserved 18th century dwelling. Surrounded by a stunning, terraced panoramic garden, with a breathtaking view of the lake, the Villa is one of the area’s most romantic retreats. Standing on the tip of a promontory overlooking the waters of the lake, the Villa was chosen by director

George Lucas as one of the evocative settings for the famous Star War series. Lying just a stone’s throw northwest of Como is Cernobbio, a small fashionable resort frequented by the wealthy of Europe because of its deluxe hotel Villa d’Este and Villa Erba where director Luchino Visconti spent his childhood (www.villaerba.it). Continuing North, we find Isola Comacina a jewel of art and nature, rich in Mediterranean vegetation and one of the most important archaeological sites of the dark ages in Northern Italy (www.isola-comacina. it). In nearby Tremezzo, don’t miss a visit to the Baroque-style Villa Carlotta, featuring an Italian garden and sculptures by Canova. At the junction of the southern arm of the lake lies Bellagio, also referred to as the pearl of Como, set in a strategic position to soak up the panorama.

A few steps from Milan...

a former Cistercian monastery renovated in Gothic style.

Milan is a mixture of art, culture, shopping and lifestyle and its outlying areas are equally attractive.

Discover our pick of these fabulous destinations for an unmissable outof-town trip. By Simona P.K. Daviddi

EN PLEIN AIR The area housing the abbeys is 6 also the heart of the large Parco Agricolo Sud Milano (www. parcoagricolosudmilano. it). The Park boasts a rich historic and agricultural heritage and comprises old farmsteads, waterways and important residential complexes, including Gaggiano 7 , which, with its small, pastel-coloured houses nestling on both banks of the Naviglio Grande, is well worth a visit.

This charming hamlet can be accessed from the city via a scenic bicycle track skirting the canal. The Martesana Canal also offers views of rare beauty as it flows towards the Adda river.

Rural centres are interspersed with expanses of greenery (an absolute must is a visit to the Adda Park which can also be crossed by bike or on horseback) and charming urban centres, including Crespi d’Adda 8 , a late 19th-century workers’ village built up around a textiles factory and a UNESCO world heritage site (www. villaggiocrespi.it). However, Milan is not only renowned for its canals. Lying on the outskirts of the city, just behind the airport of Linate, we find the Idroscalo 9 , a large artificial lake set within green surroundings (www.idroscalo.info).

The area offers all types of facilities including jogging, horseback riding and bicycle paths, boat, canoe and pedalò hire, recreational fishing and even rugby pitches.

Our tour begins on the outskirts of Milan at the 17th-century Villa Arconati 1 (www.villaarconati-far.it). Known also as ‘the small Versailles of Lombardy’, it is set within the vast green spaces of the Groane Park in Bollate. This is a splendid example of Lombardy Baroque architecture and visitors are welcomed in its frescoed rooms, while summer evenings are jazzed up with a series of concerts and events in its magnificent gardens. We recommend a visit to the Villa Visconti Borromeo Litta 2 (www.villalittalainate.it) which is just a short distance away in Lainate.

This neo-classical jewel of architecture is surrounded by a lovely park that earned the title of the ‘Most Beautiful Historical Park in Italy’ in 2016. The Villa is renowned for its Nyphaeum and spectacular water features. A mixture of sacred and profane – the Metropolitan City area is interspersed with numerous abbeys. In fact, there are so many that there is even a Road of Abbeys (www.stradadelleabbazie.it). Our route starts from the Abbey of Chiaravalle 3 , dominated by an imposing, richly frescoed 14th-century bell tower, and continues onwards to the Abbey of Viboldone 4 , one the most beautiful medieval complexes in Lombardy, until we reach Mirasole 5 , a 13th-century monastery which, with its numerous moats, resembles a fortress. After travelling for a few more kilometers, in a southwesterly direction, we come to the Abbey of Morimondo 6 ,

A DAY DEVOTED TO CULTURE If the weather’s gloomy, don’t despair! This is a great opportunity to visit a museum! Perhaps a historic one like the Alfa Romeo Museum 10 (www.museoalfaromeo.com) in Arese, formerly home to the prestigious factory. This museum has six floors of models that have made motoring history, as well as prototypes and memorabilia. Another must-visit option is the Galleria Campari 11 (www.campari.com)

in Sesto San Giovanni, a trip to discover the merchandise and cocktails that have made the brand famous. For lovers of design, the Kartellmuseo 12 (www.kartell.com) in Noviglio is a must see. Located in one of Lombardy’s most notable examples of industrial architecture, it showcases more than 8,000 objets d’art and 5,000 drawings associated with the famous brand.

Another noteworthy museum is Mumac 13 (www.mumac.it) in Binasco: a sleek, redlacquered building, it houses a spectacular display of coffee-making machines.

WHAT’S NEW As with every ‘city on the move’, Milan is constantly enriched with new attractions.

Two in particular deserve a special mention. The first is found in the area that hosted Expo in 2015 and which has now become Experience Milano 14 (www. experiencemilano. it), a four thousand square metre park (open from May to November) where visitors can attend performances, concerts and sporting events.

The second innovation is Milan’s latest attraction dedicated to skydiving.

Aero-Gravity 15 , the biggest freefall simulator in the world, has opened in Pero.

This is a sophisticated contraption, designed to overcome the force of gravity and support flight, offering visitors (children from 4 years) the thrill of experiencing what it feels like to jump from an airplane at an altitude of 4,500 metres (www.aerogravity.it).
