A RETURN TO NATURE In 2019, Milan will celebrate the 500th anniversary of the death of Leonardo da Vinci with Leonardo500, an actionpacked program of events that will last for nine months and involve several key locations across the city. By Giulia Minero

▲ Castello Sforzesco’s Sala delle Asse, decorated by Leonardo, has re-opened its doors to the public, offering visitors a unique close-up view of the recently restored ‘Monochrome’ mural and the preparatory drawings that re-surfaced on the walls of the room. A multimedia installation will walk visitors through the entire work, from the walls to the vault, commissioned to celebrate Ludovico il Moro. The tour of the room includes an exhibition titled ‘In the shadow of the Moro. The Sala delle Asse’. Until January 2020.

LEONARDO IN FRANCE ▼ The exhibition ‘Leonardo in France. Drawings in the Codex Atlanticus from the French period’ features a selection of 23 sheets from the Codex Atlanticus created during the artist’s last years at Amboise on the Loire. Leonardo’s genius is expressed in a vast collection of highly innovative architectural and hydraulic projects created at the court of Francis I, the King of France, between 1516 and 1518. Until 15 September.

Veneranda Biblioteca Ambrosiana. Piazza Pio XI, 2. www.ambrosiana.it

SUSPENDED BETWEEN ART AND SCIENCE ▲ The pop-up exhibition Leonardo Parade features 52 works, including frescoes by 16th century Lombard painters and models created in the 1950s, based on Leonardo da Vinci’s drawings. In addition to machines, the exhibition features recently restored models of military and civil architecture in plaster and terracotta, offering visitors a unique opportunity to explore Leonardo’s research and studies in different fields related to all aspects of art, science and engineering. Until 13 October.

Museo della Scienza e Tecnologia Leonardo da Vinci. Via San Vittore, 21. www.museoscienza.org

MAKE WAY FOR NEW TECHNOLOGIES The immersive exhibition ‘Leonardo da Vinci 3D’ explores the Renaissance master’s genius, his life, his discoveries and his works of art through new technologies, including augmented reality and holograms.

DUOMO Among one of the most important Gothic buildings in the world, the church constructed over a period of 450 years is the symbol of Milan. To experience the Duomo at its most majestic you must ascend to the roof. 1 GALLERIA VITTORIO EMANUELE II Sometimes known as “the living-room of the Milanese”, this elegant, four-storey arcade, housing luxury cafés and famous designer shops, is covered by a glass barrel vault and a beautiful glass cupola. 2 CASTELLO SFORZESCO The ancient seat of the ruling Visconti, it was later rebuilt by Francesco Sforza and is now simply known by the Milanese as “Il Castello”. It houses a number of interesting museums and libraries. Its park is a favourite with old and young alike. 3 6 W H E R E M I L A N I AU G U S T 2019

CENACOLO VINCIANO One of the most famous attractions in the world, “The Last Supper” by Leonardo da Vinci is a 15th century large mural painting representing the scene of the last supper of Jesus narrated in the Gospel. This fragile masterpiece was painted by Leonardo using a technique that was chemically imperfect and by the early 16th century it has started to flake and decay, resulting in numerous restorations. 4 PALAZZO REALE Formerly the residence of all those who governed Milan, from Napoleon to the Royal House of Savoy, the Royal Palace is currently one of the most important cultural centres in the city, hosting exhibitions of international renown. Near the Duomo, it’s the perfect place to escape the crowds of the Duomo’s square. 5

PIAZZA SCALA The perfect location for the new Gallerie d’Italia Art Museum and the premiere opera house Teatro alla Scala. Rising up in the center of the square is the tall monument dedicated to Leonardo da Vinci 6 MONTENAPOLEONE DISTRICT Milan is known as one of the shopping capitals of the world and via Montenapoleone, together with the Golden Quad, is entirely given over to luxury shopping. Here the most important fashion designers offer their creations. 7 BRERA DISTRICT This is an artsy neighbourhood which really comes to life at night. The Pinacoteca di Brera is one of the most important museums in Milan. Its permanent collections offer a wealth of exceptionally good Italian and foreign masterpieces. 8

The Biblioteca Federiciana has on show Leonardo’s Codex Atlanticus. 9 NAVIGLI The Navigli are artificial canals built 800 years ago to ferry people and merchandise to Milan. This network was perfected in 1457 by Leonardo da Vinci. Today, the area is bursting with trendy dining and nightlife spots. 10 SAN SIRO STADIUM With a capacity of 80,000 seats, Milan football stadium is the largest stadium in Italy and the fourth in Europe. 11 SANT’AMBROGIO - One of the most ancient churches in Milan, it was built in 379-386 A.D., in an area where martyrs had been buried. 12

PORTA NUOVA DISTRICT A vibrant, futuristic district overlooking two neighbourhoods: the Garibaldi and Isola districts. The heart of the area is the large raised square dedicated to architect and designer Gae Aulenti. Just a little further on you will encounter the Bosco Verticale with the new Biblioteca degli Alberi, the Diamant Tower, Palazzo Lombardia and Palazzo Pirelli designed by Gio Ponti. 13 TRIENNALE DI MILANO Since 1923 this is an international institution which organises exhibitions and events about arts, designs, architecture, fashion, cinema, photography and theatre. 14 CIMITERO MONUMENTALE A real outdoor museum catering, on the one hand to the whims of the elite of Milan’s society, and on the other to works of art by famous sculptors of various eras. 15

The new InfoPoint-Tourist Office of Milan is now located at no. 14 Piazza Duomo, just steps from the Duomo Museum and Palazzo Reale. In addition to distributing free maps and brochures of Milan and the Lombardy Region, it provides multilingual tourist assistance and information. For more info, see page 61

It's gelato time! Terra Gelato

PH © GINEVRA COLNAGHI

PH © FUSILLOLAB

Located in the Stazione Centrale area, gelateria Terra serves a light gelato with a distinctive flavour, in a welcoming, design-oriented locale that features a window overlooking the artisanal workshop, where you can watch all the stages of the ice cream making process. In addition to the quality of its ingredients (Terra only uses mountain hay milk from South Tyrol, eggs laid by free-range, uncaged hens from a controlled supply chain, and mono-origin cocoa from Madagascar, Peru and the Dominican Republic), the characteristic that makes this gelateria unique is its wide range of sweet and salty flavours. Apart from classic flavours, including its deliciously creamy tiramisu or its Sicilian pistachio gelato, you can sample unusual gastronomic flavours like pea and mint, butter and anchovies or parmigiano reggiano. Via Vitruvio, 38. www.terragelato.it. M1 Lima. Map H2

Gelato Libre

At this small pop boutique, decorated in shades of pink, you’ll find pastry chef Ilaria Forlani’s frozen creations. Despite her youth – she’s only thirty – Ilaria boasts an impressive resume. After opening an ice cream shop in the province of Brescia in 2011, where she received several national and international awards, she has now made her debut in Milan. Glacé Sweet Concept Store uses premium-quality ingredients and offers customers a product that is 100% natural, created using only fresh milk from her family’s farms in Brescia, plus fresh, seasonal fruit, grape and raw brown sugar and no artificial colours, flavourings, thickeners or hydrogenated fats. The menu, curated by Ilaria, faithfully represents the food & beverage universe from which she draws inspiration for her innovative recipes. In addition to a selection of more classic flavours like crema glacé, Nectar of the gods, yoghurt, hazelnut or pistachio, she also offers several other more creative options including ice stones or sushi gelato, which has already gained cult status and is prepared by hand. Curious? Head to via Archimede in the Cinque Giornate district and try it for yourself. Via Archimede, 12. M1 Palestro. Map H4

Dairy and egg-free ice cream? This is now an option and, what’s more, when Domori, a manufacturer of premiumquality chocolate, is involved, you’re in for a treat! This ice cream parlour in the heart of Milan, at the crossroads between via Carducci and corso Magenta, combines the requirements of committed vegans, or those who are lactose intolerant, with people who are passionate about artisanal ice cream. Gelato Libre only uses cocoa and dried fruit, allowing the essence of the raw material to shine through, and the addition of water further enhances this in terms of flavour and creaminess. It could therefore be described as ‘water-based ice cream’ – since only spring water is used, and the gelato is creamed on the spot using a special machine. At present, eight flavours are available: Criollo chocolate, chocolate and whisky, Libre cream, tiramisù, caramel, makaron, pistachio and hazelnut, all served in biodegradable cups with a low environmental impact.

Lakeside Summer

14 W H E R E M I L A N I AU G U S T 2019

Though different one from the other, Lombardy’s five lakes all have one thing in common: a unique landscape enhanced by lush vegetation and panoramic views. August is synonymous with a day at the lake! BY GIULIA MINERO

here’s no better time than summer to start planning an out-of-town weekend, perhaps to search for some respite from the heat at the edge of a lake. Start packing, this is a great opportunity to discover the natural treasures that make Lombardy, ‘The Lake District’ par excellence. DISCOVERING HISTORY ON LAKE MAGGIORE Lake Maggiore is Italy’s second largest lake; its shores wash up on the banks of Piedmont and Lombardy, and its northern basin lies in the mountainous region of Switzerland. It is steeped in history, abounding in rocky coves that create real natural terraces with a panoramic view. During past centuries, aristocrats and wealthy bourgeois locals holidayed here during the summer months, and traces of its luxurious past are still apparent in several of its better-known lakeside destinations, including Arona and Stresa. The latter, with its pedestrian streets that are closed to traffic and dedicated to shopping, is the perfect destination for visitors wanting to indulge in some retail therapy, or to relax at one of its delectable waterfront cafes or restaurants. From 14 July to 8 September, its banks are enlivened by the annual International ‘Stresa Festival’ featuring an action-packed calendar of classical music concerts and live dance performances (www. stresafestival.eu). Lake Maggiore's smart, low-slung white ferries shuttle back and forth between the belle époque resort of Stresa and Isola Bella, the jewel of the Borromeo family, dominated by monumental terraced gardens and the 17th-century residence of Palazzo Borromeo, whose rooms and underground caves have now been transformed into a museum with collections by well-known artists, priceless furniture, marbles and neo-classical stuccoes. If you’ve decided to explore the treasures of Lake Maggiore, we recommend a visit to PH © JOAQUIN OSSORIO CASTILLO / SHUTTERSTOCK.COM

A towering statue of San Carlo Borromeo, measuring 23.40 meters in height, stands on the banks of Lake Maggiore, in Arona, the birthplace of the saint. Known as the Colossus, the hollow statue has steep stairs and ladders inside leading to its head, from which visitors can admire a spectacular view of the surrounding landscape.

I Due Roccoli

the city of Angera, whose star attraction is its massive 13th-century hilltop castle. In addition to offering a breathtaking view over the lake, its impressive architecture and lush gardens still remain to this day (www.isoleborromee.it). End your tour on a high note with a revitalizing lunch at one of the area’s charming eateries. The fish menu at the Sole di Ranco restaurant may be ideal.

Discover the lakes with Trenord Thanks to special tickets, the “Discovery Trains” package by Trenord includes tickets for embarkation on the boats that cross the lake, in addition to the train trip to your destination of choice. The beauties of Lake Garda or Lake Iseo, with a stopover in Monte Isola, are just a day trip away from any station in Lombardy. Alternatively, Trenord’s Lake Maggiore tour includes a Special Ticket which entitles you to a 40% discount on the entry ticket to the area’s historic Villa Taranto, whose botanical garden is considered one of the most beautiful in the world. There is also the combined ticket for the tour of the treasures of Lake Como that entitles you to a 10% discount on the entry ticket to Villa Carlotta, a beautiful 17th century villa in Tremezzina. Don’t miss the circular Como Lake Tour from Como to Lecco, with a stop at Bellagio. www.trenord.it

16 W H E R E M I L A N I AU G U S T 2019

The hotel’s restaurant serves contemporary cuisine accompanied by a fabulous selection of fine Italian and international wines and spirits (www.ilsolediranco.it). FEEL LIKE A STAR AT LAKE COMO If you’re in search of a chic destination, where you might catch sight of an A-lister or movie star, including first and foremost George Clooney, Lake Como is your go-to destination. Renowned for having inspired Alessandro Manzoni to write his famous novel ‘The Betrothed’, it is the most spectacular of the region’s three major lakes. Winding and shaped like an upside-down Y, it dominates the provinces of Como and Lecco, with each arm assuming a different identity depending on its location. If you find yourself on the Como side, make sure to visit the Gothic Cathedral and the Romanesque basilicas of Sant’Abbondio and San Fedele. You can also take advantage of the extraordinary opening of the monumental complex of the Roman Baths dating back to the 1st century A.D. The baths can be visited free-of-charge on Tuesday and Thursday from 10am to 2pm and on Saturday from 10am to 6pm (www. touringclub.it). If all of the sightseeing in Como has made you hungry, head to the restaurant I Tigli in Theoria. Located in the heart of a 15th-century bishop’s palace, this delightful Michelin-starred restaurant offers guests sophisticated, contemporary cuisine, served on a glass-fronted patio with a view over the inner courtyard (www.theoriagallery.it). After your meal go towards Cernobbio (situated northeast of Como) and take a breather at Villa Erba, currently a go-to destination for events related to the world of fashion, collectibles and motoring. With its spectacular lakeside view,

Lake Iseo

it is renowned for having been the summer home of director Luchino Visconti, when he was a child (www.villaerba.it). Alternately, head north in the direction of Isola Comacina, a triumph of lush Mediterranean vegetation and a perfect escape from the summer heat. If historic dwellings are your passion, we strongly suggest a visit to Villa del Balbianello, one of the ‘pearls’ of the lake, and the romantic setting for a variety of movie scenes. Do you remember the marriage between Anakin Skywalker and Padmé Amidala in Star Wars: The Attack of the Clones? Its terrace played a leading role! (www.fondoambiente.it) Allow yourself to be captivated by the Baroque beauty of Villa Carlotta, embellished with statues and sculptures by Antonio Canova. In addition to hosting exhibitions year-round, it boasts an action-packed events calendar in summer (www.villacarlotta.it). The charming town of Bellagio, situated at the intersection of the inverted Y shape that characterizes Lake Como, is an absolute must-see. After exploring its treasures, take a breather and enjoy a sundowner with a great lakeside view. LAKE ORTA, THE SECRET LITTLE SISTER OF THE ITALIAN LAKES French author, Honoré de Balzac called Orta’s island “a simple yet coquettish island set amidst calm and sparkling waters” and these words used to describe this pocket-sized lake lying at the foot of the mountains still ring true today. Located approximately 80km from Milan, and surrounded by verdant hills, Lake Orta is the ideal destination for those wishing to spend a relaxing day while discovering its history. Situated in the heart of the Lake and easily accessible from the mainland via ferry boat, the Island of San Giulio is a must-visit

Villa Crespi Restaurant

LAKE ISEO, A PLEASING DISCOVERY Due to its physical appearance, Lake Iseo is affectionately referred to by the locals as ‘Little Capri’. Like the Island in Campania, it has steep rock faces that plunge into the lake. The small streets skirting the lake offer magnificent views of the surrounding scenery and the beaches carved out in the coves lying below it. If you’re feeling energetic, walk up to one of the area’s small local churches, for example, the Church of San Lorenzo in Castro (www.visitlakeiseo.info). If all this walking has made you hungry, you can enjoy a romantic dinner at the I Due Roccoli restaurant in Iseo. The restaurant serves mouth watering traditional cuisine on its stone patio, adorned with old-world furniture. End your day’s outing and meal on a high note with a glass of ‘bubbly’ from the nearby Franciacorta region (www.idueroccoli.com).

destination for a quiet stroll and the perfect place to commune with nature (www.orta.net). It is not by chance that the Island is traversed by the ‘Road of Silence and Meditation’, a narrow path connecting the jetty to a small monastery, a Romanesque basilica and Palazzo Vescovile. If you’d like to sample the flavours of Piedmont cuisine, we recommend a visit to the small town of Arola where you can delight your taste buds with genuine, home-cooked food served at Ristorante La Zucca (Facebook: @RistoranteLaZucca), while enjoying the idyllic scenery. Villa Crespi in Orta San Giulio is another great option for those searching for something more sophisticated. Set within a beautiful park, the Villa’s restaurant is helmed by two-Michelin-starred chef Antonino Cannavacciuolo, whose creative cuisine will delight your palate with unusual pairings, locally-sourced ingredients and a selection of the finest vintages (www.villacrespi.it).

Sirmione, Lake Garda

LAKE GARDA: A BLEND OF SPORT AND CULTURE If you’re feeling active and would like to discover what lies beyond the confines of Milan, then Lake Garda could be exactly what you’re looking for. Surrounded by three distinct regions – Lombardy, Trentino AltoAdige and the Veneto – the lake’s cultural diversity and wind-ruffled waters make it a paradise for water sports and more. The nearby Gardaland, one of Italy’s largest amusement parks, boasts several of the country’s most famous attractions, including roller coasters, simulators and theme parks designed to appeal to visitors of all ages (www.gardaland.it). Alternately, if you’re keen to learn more about Italian culture, head to the Lake’s north-eastern shore to visit the Vittoriale degli Italiani, the house-museum dedicated to renowned poet and patriot Gabriele D’Annunzio, where you can admire memorabilia, airplanes and the vast library that belonged to the writer. The venue is open daily from 9am to 7.30pm and guided tours are available (www.vittoriale.it). End your trip of discovery with a stopover in Sirmione, a spa town situated on the edge of the lake. Recharge your batteries and indulge in a thermal water treatment or a whirlpool experience followed by a mouth watering candle-lit dinner at the La Rucola 2.0 restaurant which serves local dishes upgraded with a creative twist (www.ristorantelarucola.it).

SHOPPING

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. Source: www.adm.gov.it/portale/ee/citizen/vta-refund

DUOMO DISTRICT Piazza Duomo is also home to the largest Tiffany & Co. boutique in Europe. Spread over two floors of a historic 1870 building, it is located in front of the Arengario and the Museo del Novecento, by now a landmark attraction for tourists visiting the city.

Valli Tessuti Alta Moda ●

●

Milan’s historic centre is contained within a relatively small area which is now mostly closed to traffic, meaning that it’s easy to explore on foot. There’s no need to choose between planning a ‘cultural’ itinerary or a ‘shopping’ itinerary because you can combine the two and get the most out of both. In addition to being packed with several of Milan’s most famous attractions, this area is home to myriad shops, including big-name fashion brands, historic ‘botteghe’ and some of the city’s most sought-after cafés, bars and eateries.

AROUND THE DUOMO The Duomo, per se, requires no introduction. It is the undisputed symbol of Milan and the heart of the city. 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 jewellery and watch brands.

TOWARDS TEATRO ALLA SCALA: THE GALLERIA 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. In the Galleria, haute couture takes centre stage. In addition to 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). You say ‘aperitivo’ and you immediately think 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 locale is spread over four floors and focuses on 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 soughtafter 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!) or at Ristorante Savini, one of Milan’s most iconic landmark restaurants, or at the Marchesi alla Scala restaurant.

VALLI TESSUTI ALTA MODA A reference point in Milan for the best Made in Italy cuts. Located in via Verdi, just steps from Teatro alla Scala, here expert staff will assist you in the search for the perfect fabric to make elegant outfits, prêt-à-porter or formal wear. These fabrics are inspired by the patterns of the most up-to-date haute couture collections. Valli stocks a wide assortment of exquisite fabrics for men (including pinstripes and prince of Wales check by Ermenegildo Zegna and Loro Piana) and women (Valentino and Ungaro), as well as bolts of cloth to make coats and outerwear, shirts, accessories and bridal gowns. vallitessuti.com Via G.

● Culti Milano Angela Caputi Giuggiù ● Alfonso Garlando ●

Giosa Milano ● ● The Merchant of Venice ● Pettinaroli

Brera is synonymous with the artistic heart of the city. As you stroll along the streets of this ancient district, you cannot help but be enchanted by its almost surreal atmosphere boasting small artisans’ workshops or quaint stores selling canvases and paints. EDITOR'S TIP Additionally, Brera is home to the impressive Accademia di Belle Arti, where visitors can admire Milan’s famous painting collection at the Pinacoteca (Brera Picture Gallery), the historic Biblioteca Nazionale Braidense (Braidense National Library), the Museo Astronomico (Astronomical Museum), which is the oldest scientific research institute in the city, and the Giardino Botanico (Botanical Gardens), an evocative green space located in the heart of the city.

ART, SHOPPING AND ENTERTAINMENT To start your sightseeing tour on the right foot, we suggest stopping for a cup of coffee at Princi, not just an ordinary bakery, but a meeting point where, amidst the heady scents of “brioches” and “cappuccino”, you'll have a chance to begin your day on a high note. 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. As an aside, those interested in bargains or bric à brac should definitely make time to visit the Mercatino di antiquariato e brocantage, held on the third Sunday of each month. The array of boutiques continues with the elegant artisan footwear sold by Iliprandi or the tailormade, Italian-style shoes by Alfonso Garlando. Other points of interest include the elegant womenswear boutique Rosso35, Misani's artisanal jewels for him and for her, the original accessories by Angela Caputi Giuggiù and the unique leather accessories by the new Giosa Milano boutique in via Ciovasso, 6.

The Merchant of Venice

THE PERFUME DISTRICT At no. 4, we find the new The Merchant of Venice boutique, an historic perfumery epitomizing the art of Venetian perfume-making 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). Our next port of call is via Fiori Chiari, where we find the beautiful window displays of Culti Milano. The brand also has a boutique at no. 53 corso Venezia (www.culti.com). Other must-visits while in the area include Olfattorio Bar-à-Parfums (via Brera 5, www.olfattorio.it), Diptyque (via Brera 23, www.diptyqueparis.eu), Profumo (via Brera 6, www.profumomilano.com), the new Amouage boutique (via Fiori Chiari 7, www.amouage.com), Dr.Vranjes (via Fiori Chiari 24, http://drvranjes.it), Officina Profumo - Farmaceutica di Santa Maria Novella (via Madonnina, www. smnovella.com), Creed (via Madonnina 17, creed.cale.it), 9Nine (via Ponte Vetero 22, www.beautysanspa.com) and Fragonard (via Solferino 2, www.fragonard.com). And don’t miss the new olfactive library Histoires de Parfums, a pop up store of the French niche perfume brand, just opened in via Madonnina 17 (until December 2019). TASTING SUGGESTIONS Between visiting one shop and another, you might be surprised to suddenly discover that it’s time for lunch. Try the typical Parma-based charcuterie specialities at Parma & Co, where you can also enjoy a Sunday brunch or the famed sandwiches sold by Panino Giusto. The afternoon is likely to pass by in a flash until you suddenly realize that it’s aperitivo time: you are definitely likely to be seduced by the purely Art Déco-style atmosphere of El Tombon de San Marc or the trendier atmosphere of Fashion Café in via San Marco or, for different taste, the restaurant Hong Kong Crossover in via Ciovasso offering the sought-after flavours of the Orient. Other options are heady wine tasting sessions in the informal ambience of either N’Ombra de Vin or Moscatelli or dining the restaurant Daniel offering contemporary Italian cuisine and the chance to enjoy something new from day to day.

Poolside Happy Hour If you want to cool down and escape the Milanese heat, you should head to this beautifully-restored former 1930s lido where you can swim, sunbathe or relax on the lawn. By Chiara Zaccarelli

‘B

agni Misteriosi’ (The Mysterious Baths), is an evocatively named complex that is a part of the artistic and historic heritage of the city of Milan, located in the city’s vibrant Porta Romana district. Its structure is that of the former Centro Balneare Caimi, which dates back to the 1930s, and has been painstakingly restored, with the two large pools and surrounding spaces returned to their original splendour. This complex was originally conceived as a multi-purpose space with sports facilities, including rooms for boxing and fencing, a doctor’s office, a library and even a printing works, and was part of the current headquarters of the adjacent Teatro Franco Parenti. In addition to the two original pools, which have been completely restructured, the complex boasts a tennis court, and a large 50 W H E R E M I L A N I AU M AY G U2017 S T 2019

terrace, plus a bar and restaurant, surrounded by greenery, thanks to the paths shaded by flowers and creepers planted along both its borders. Excluding summer, its changing rooms are used to host workshops, exhibitions and events. The Bagni misteriosi complex, named after the famous work by Giorgio de Chirico on display at the Museo del Novecento, is a peaceful haven in the heart of Milan. You can cool off in its two large pools from June to the end of September, all day and in the evenings on Wednesdays and Thursdays until 10pm. There is a pool for adults, with a depth ranging from 1.25 to 1.70m, with several lanes for freestyle swimming, and one for children, with a depth ranging from 60 to 90cm). You can also indulge in the quintessential, strictly barefoot aperitivo ritual from 7pm to 11pm.

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 ,

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 MIND Milano (Milano Innovation District) 14 (www.mindmilano. it), a four thousand square metre park 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).
