Gaggiano e Cascina Guzzafame. - If you have to stay in Milan but don't like the hustle and bustle of the big city, you can choose Gaggiano which, located in the southern agricultural park, is among the greenest municipalities in the hinterland. The motorbike-departure starts in the square that overlooks the Naviglio Grande and has the Church of Sant'Invenzio as a background. (continues below the video)
The facade is painted in white and ocher, which bring out the Baroque style. From an unknown period, it was renovated in 1620 and inside, in addition to eighteenth-century frescoes, it houses a painting of the '400 with the Madonna delle Grazie, considered miraculous. Legend has it that he would have saved the inhabitants from the collapse of the roof during the renovation of the Church. You go along the Naviglio up to the romantic bridge and beyond the pedestrian passage, you proceed along a clean street with early twentieth century villas, all colored. Solitary and on the outskirts of the town, the 18th century Palazzo Venni Ubaldi street dominates, with large windows and refined stuccoes. Just outside the door, take the tree-lined avenue to the Cascina, a famous environmental protection center with a dairy and a starred restaurant.
