Sempione Park, Milan

Piazza Sempione, Milano, Lombardia

Description

Parco Sempione is Milan's main urban park. It spreads over close to 40ha, adjacent to the Sforza Castle and to the Arch of Peace. It was designed at the end of the 19th century by Emilio Alemagna and includes monument such as the Palazzo dell'Arte (that houses the Triennale di Milano) and the Civic Aquarium as well as several sculptures.

Access & Transport

The Park extends northwest of the Sforza, directly north of the Milano Cardona train station. Tram lines 1 and 10 go around the southwestern edge of the park until the Arch of Peace whilst lines 1, 4, 12 and 14 go along its eastern edge.

Instructions & Recommendations

We recommend combining a visit of the park with the Castello Sforzesco and Triennale di Milano museum.

Meta review

The park is one of the most popular venues for travellers in the city though it is not necessarily described as a must see by online reviewers who recommend going there when in need of a break from the city, a quiet walk or just to read a book. In the summer, this is the perfect place to enjoy the shade of the trees

Environmental & Social

A very green attraction. Positive for the community as green spaces make for a better living environment

Conclusion

The park makes for a very enjoyable and relaxing break from the rest of Milan's cultural and urban attractions. It has several attention-worthy features and is the perfect place to rest after a visit to one of the Triennale museums or the Sforza Castle.
