Naviglio Grande
The Naviglio Grande is a canal in northern Italy's Lombardy region that connects the Ticino River near Tornavento to Milan's Porta Ticinese pier, also known as the Darsena. Canals do not have to be seen in Venice or Amsterdam! The Naviglio Grande, which runs from Porta Ticinese to the Ticino River, is Milan's own canal network. And, best of all, it's just a few feet from the city center, where you'll discover some of Milan's greatest hostels. Despite its central position, this hidden treasure is frequently ignored by tourists, giving it an excellent hideaway. And the canal's walkways on each side are lined with stores, cafés, and bars to keep even the wariest of visitors entertained.
On a nice, bright day, Naviglio Grande is an excellent spot to unwind. You may spend a day wandering along the canal and watching the boats pass by. And if you become hungry or thirsty, you may visit one of the numerous neighboring cafés or restaurants. At night, the canal transforms into a busy center for bar hopping, with residents spilling onto the pathways to sip aperitivo and wine. Spend an afternoon and evening at Naviglio Grande if you're searching for a local, laid-back area!
