An icon of 1930s art deco in the heart of Milan. Villa Necchi was built by Pietro Portaluppi for the Necchi Campiglio family, which belonged to the Lombard industrial bourgeoisie.

Vintage lovers!
The Planetarium of Milan, Civico Planetario "Ulrico Hoepli", is a building located at the entrance of Giardini di Porta Venezia. It's a beautiful structure designed by Piero Portaluppi and commissioned by the Italian-Swiss publisher Ulrico Hoepli.
Also the interior design is beautiful, there you can find a planetarium which projects and represents the image of the stars and their movements in the sky.
The Planetarium also has a library which is a section of the Museum of Natural History, near by.
They also organize educational activity concerning astronomy as talks, events and even concerts.
Tiny wine bar and store in Milan's Chinatown area, selling wine by the bottle and by the glass, alongside small plates/snacks. Friendly staff and great selection of wine. Always popular so be prepared to stand!
Giacomo ristorante, bistrot... They are all located on the same street, Via Pasquale Sottocorno, but the rosticceria is the more, let's say, "easy-going" (and the cheapest) of the three.
It's a good place for lunch and dinner - ask for a table at the "giardino interno".
