manoxmano discovers the most beautiful and particular quarters and areas of Milan

 

 
EVERY CORNER HAS ITS OWN HISTORY (working-class proverb)

Do you know what a quarter is? A quarter is a part of the city… Let’s imagine a huge cake, take a slice of it: that slice is a quarter… and, in fact, the name quarter comes from the number of parts in which cities were divided during the Roman Empire! Each quarter has its own characteristics and, for this reason, we have chosen some of the most particular ones. There are also some areas in Milan which are worth being discovered because of its tradition or its essence!

MEMORY IS THE DIARY THAT WE ALL CARRY ABOUT WITH US (Oscar Wilde)

Do you like hearing stories? Well, you don’t need to go to bed to hear one of them; we will tell you some that you may listen to while walking around the city… some are true, others are mysterious, others are legends that are transmitted through books and tales, others are true legends made of heroes and champions! For some of them, you will see the real proves, but for the other ones, you just have to believe in them! But one thing is sure: even if they are true or fake, they exist and always will!

A BIKE IS AS IMPORTANT AS A LIBRARY (Alfredo Oriani)

Have you ever tried to spend an entire day pedalling without dangers? Well, let’s say that in Milan is not that easy, but we will suggest you some pleasant itineraries in order to appreciate the beautiful landscapes of the city and to benefit from nature… or both of them! If you don’t have a bike or if it doesn’t work because it’s too old, we will suggest you some great services in Milan that may be perfect for you. Otherwise you may choose the city service called BikeMi, but it’s available only for adults. And remember: whether you are a professional cyclist or not, you have rights and duties. (See: bike in metro and bike in train)

A STREETCAR NAMED DESIRE (movie 1950)

Have you ever took a tram to travel and not only to go somewhere? It’s easy! You just need an all day-ticket (see types of ATM tickets) and you will be able to take the line you prefer, going through some areas of the city, getting off and getting in whenever you want! Only one advice: during the trip it’s forbidden to use any electronic device… except for cameras used to take pictures of the outside!
