This tour will show you Milan from a much more fascinating point of view than the common one and will give you the feeling of being part of this magnificent city.
Our tour begins at Gae Aulenti Square ; modern Milan. I will show you the new buildings awarded worldwide for their beauty and design. Then we will continue along Corso Como to the Comasina Gate , current Garibaldi Gate , and it is from here that we will learn the great secret of this city as we will head to the center of Milan crossing the "Ponte delle gabelle" , the place where the "Naviglio della Martesana", where we will find the great hydraulic work designed by Leonardo da Vinci to connect the city through "i navigli": the canal locks.
We will follow the route that the canals took and we will arrive at the Brera Academy of Fine Arts and its bohemian neighborhood. We continue walking until we find the Sforzesco Castle ; We will get to know its impressive and imposing architecture.
