Craving proper Milanese food? Risoelatte is the answer to your prayers. Set in a cozy, 60's inspired location (complete with an original and working jukebox), Risoelatte is the perfect answer to the eternal 'what to do for Sunday lunch' questions.

Charming place where to find books, wine, music, exhibitions and talks. My favourite bit is the lovely little backyard.

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.

Rotating modern art exhibitions in a complex of. beautifully design/renovated buildings, designed by Rem Koolhaas. Also has a great cafe and restaurant.

Achille Castiglioni (1918-2002), architect and furniture designer, left an enormous amount of inventions and designs, carefully kept by his family in his studio museum in Piazza Castello.  Castiglioni's studio museum can be visited on appointment throughout the year.
