To really reach/understand a city you must live there or, at least, acting like you do. Nothing makes you feel more like a Milanese D.O.C. than stopping by Frida's on a Sunday morning to buy some flowers. Located in Brera this tiny shop has an extraordinary colour palette of flowers and plants. After that we just take a walk in the neighbourhood holding our bunch of Brassica Oleracea and our day is made.

Inaugurated on May 3, 1934, the Roberto Cozzi indoor swimming pool was the first entirely covered pool in Italy - a masterpiece of the engineer and architect Luigi Lorenzo Secchi (1899-1992). It's possible to book just for the day by the website www.milanosport.it and, for summer days, you can also use the terrace.
