Naviglio Grande in Turbigo

Highlight • River

The Naviglio Grande, once used for the transport of goods and people, connected Milan to Ticino. Near the town of Turbigo, the Naviglio is crossed by a bridge which had a strategic importance on 31 May 1800 when, with the battle of Turbigo, Napoleon Bonaparte's French troops conquered the bridge, thus gaining entry to Milan.

Binda Bike Bar

Highlight • Cafe

A well-known meeting point for those who cycle in Milan and the surrounding area, the Binda Bici Bar is located in the municipality of Nosate, near the pretty church of Santa Maria in Binda. It is a bar with outdoor chairs and umbrellas, whose piadinas and sandwiches are named after cyclists. Among the best are the piadinas dedicated to Martina Alzini (raw ham, brie, salad) and Stefano Oldani (salami, mayonnaise), both of whom also frequent Binda.
