파라 게라 다다 최고의 사이클링 경로

1496년 Ludovico il Moro의 지휘 아래 최종적으로 완성된 Naviglio della Martesana는 Trezzo sull’Adda에서 밀라노까지 총 38km 길이를 흐릅니다. 이 경로는 Adda 강을 두 갈래로 나누어 Vaprio와 Cassano를 지나는 고대 로마 도로(현재의 SS 11 padana superiore)를 따라 이어집니다. 샘 지대 위의 땅에 물을 대는 것이 오랫동안 이 운하의 주된 용도였으며, 처음에는 항해가 일주일에 이틀로 제한되었습니다. 관개를 통한 농업 구조 개선과 동시에 바로크 시대에는 물길을 통한 여행의 편리함을 누리고 소유지를 통제하기 위한 상당한 수의 귀족 빌라가 생겨났습니다.

In the center of town, on the right bank of the Martesana Canal, stands an imposing waterwheel (popularly known as a rudun) said to have been designed by Leonardo da Vinci himself. Despite appearances, the wheel is not a mill, but a noria. Its function, in fact, was never to grind grain or power machinery, but rather to lift water from the canal to channel it into an irrigation system.

We are in Groppello, a hamlet in the municipality of Cassano d'Adda, and we must go back in time to 1618, when Cardinal Federico Borromeo commissioned this large wheel to convey the water needed to irrigate the vegetable gardens and gardens of the Archbishop's Villa. It is said that this majestic work, at the Cardinal's request, was designed by Leonardo da Vinci himself. Which, if anything, adds to its charm.

villa also used for television series on weddings and events in general

For an even more spectacular view I recommend going to the pizza restaurant in the municipality of Vaprio d'Adda

Drinking fountains: a precious ally in these hot days
