Parco agricolo del Ticinello, Urban park in south Milan, Italy.
Parco Agricolo del Ticinello is a large green space in south Milan along a canal. The grounds combine open fields with pathways for walking and cycling throughout.
The park was created in 1982 to preserve green space as Milan expanded outward. This project emerged in response to the city's growing urban development pressures.
The park demonstrates how farming and city life can work together today. Visitors see crops growing and learn where food actually comes from.
The site has multiple entrances and connects with the city's public transportation. Paths are clearly marked and suitable for different activities.
The park actively grows crops in the middle of the city and produces food. This operation allows wild animals and plants to thrive in an urban setting.
