Milano: Parco Sempione and its tower with a panoramic aperitif
"Behind every great city there's a garden", stated Swiss architect Bernard Tschumi in the Seventies. Milan, the most European of Italian cities, does not make an exception: Parco Sempione lies at the North-Wester edge of the historical centre as a precious green lung, being a focal point for Milanese leisure. A private guided tour will lead you across the park, discovering the artistic and architectural beauties hidden among the trees. Finally, you will gain a breathtaking view of the whole skyline, reaching the top of Branca tower: who even knew that Milan had its own Eiffel tower?

Parco Sempione
One of the main green areas of Milan, was designed by architect Emilio Alemagna and constructed between 1888 and 1894. It's located at the Southern end of Corso Sempione, the monumental boulevard drawn during the Napoleonic Age, and borders the North-Western side of Castello Sforzesco.
Arena CivicaPass-by Only
Built in 1805 under Napoleon's government, this amphitheatre is strongly inspired by Roman Imperial Architecture.
