Shuuuu don't tell others about these secret spots LOL
#Orto Botanico di Brera
Pretty botanic garden which take care by students who study Botany / Plant Science in University of Milano
It is quite meaningful because students can apply what they know into practices. The garden open for everyone and visitors can understand more about the plants by looking at the tags and descriptions. Sometimes there are some students distributing leaflets and introducing their works to others.
#Piazza Gae Aulenti
Urban area and financial centre of Milano. They have tall, modern building and a supermarket downstairs. One interesting thing would be one of the residential buildings nearby, it is planted with green within every floor. They have a developmental project of building a park nearby too, there are area for art, leisure and even theater here in the future.
#Universita Cattolica
School of our hosts Beatrice and Ilaria. It's private university which some of their lecture rooms look like a cathedral. It's funny hearing that there are a lot of gardens inside the campus, some of them are restricted for girls only and it's called Virginia garden lol
The medium of instruction in Italian universities is Italian, that's also one of the reasons why some Italians cannot speak fluent English.
#Arco della Pace
Similar idea with Arc de Triomphe, Napoleon tried to make Milano straight to Paris but obviously he failed.
It's the best when you come for sunset. There are many bars and restaurants nearby and u could chill out here. The restaurants here also offers Aperitivo and the price is similar with other areas, which is awesome! There are even some cool shops like second hand bookstore, which sold books at €2 for each. If you come at night and walked nearby, there are some drug dealers and looking for potential buyers. Try out if you could recognize them out~
