Inside Milan - D - 222
Porta Venezia is the first public park in Milan, wanted by the Austrians in 1700 and dedicated in 2002 to the journalist Indro Montanelli. It is an English garden where you can discover small botanical and architectural jewels. You can let yourself be surprised by secular trees, such as a monumental metasequoia, or by oaks, cedars, rows of horse chestnuts. Or you can fall under the spell of the seventeenth-century Palazzo Dugnani, or the Museum of Natural History and the dome of the Planetarium that the Italian-Swiss publisher Ulrico Hoepli first commissioned Portaluppi and then donated to the city. Not only that: the proximity to Villa Belgioioso Bonaparte and Villa Necchi Campiglio make the Montanelli Gardens an ideal stop on a cycle/pedestrian itinerary in the historical and artistic heart of the city.
