Well-kept and quiet place

Like at the seaside, but at the Idroscalo

The sea of Milan today

At the entrance to the park there is a wooden house, immediately beyond which the fairy-tale landscape of Aulì Ulè opens up: 20 thousand square meters of lawn and undergrowth enclosed by a hedge, with benches, tables and natural games: a swing-trunk, a small amphitheater made of stumps and a Compass Rose – created and donated by the Missoni Family – which in addition to indicating the winds and the cardinal points shows the main places in the world and their distance from the garden. There is a drinking water fountain and toilets nearby. The Aulì Ulè Garden was created by the Association of Friends of the Brera Academy from an idea by Fulvio Scaparro.

Who remembers “One, two, three star”, “The world” or “You’ve got it”? Who hasn’t played running, rolling on the grass, jumping and laughing with nothing more than a lawn and lots of friends? Aulì Ulè is a garden entirely dedicated to children, but it is different from the others. It has no structures for entertainment. It is a natural environment, with some games and wooden constructions among the trees and greenery, based on the idea that children should be left free to exercise their creativity, in contact with nature. It is a bridge between the past and the future, between ancient games to be rediscovered and new games to be invented, with imagination.

Two days after April 25th, the day of our Liberation, I think it is a good omen to underline this work

Borromeo Castle, built in the 13th century, the medieval structure had a quadrangular plan, with a moat and a high tower for defense and sighting purposes. Today, following the modifications, it appears as a country villa, with an L-shaped plan and an elegant double loggia overlooking the noble courtyard. The long access avenue ends in a medieval turret while rustic buildings can be recognized on the sides of the complex. The castle is surrounded by a large park with centuries-old trees and two mulberry trees, part of the ancient plantation for breeding silkworms. The complex, privately owned, cannot be visited

beautiful architecture and view of the church and cemetery, bike road in the opposite direction to cars but wide enough and not very busy
