About Parco Sempione

After the castle's rooms, crossing into Parco Sempione is a change in the size of your breath. Paths link lawns, trees and water; the Arco della Pace closes off the perspective of one of the walk's axes.

Head to the arch looking for a bench or some shade along the way. The crossing pairs well with the castle because of proximity, but it depends on the weather: if it rains, cut the walk short and save the afternoon for an indoor activity. The lawn can wait.
