Parco Forlanini

Parco Forlanini is a large urban park in eastern Milan with walking paths, a central lake, and many areas designed for different outdoor activities. The space is divided into sections that serve different purposes, making it a varied destination for different types of visitors.

The park was created in the 1960s as an urban planning project and officially opened to the public in 1970. This development was part of Milan's effort to add more green space to the expanding city.

The park is named after Alessandro Forlanini, an Italian aviation pioneer, reflecting the region's connection to early flight. Visitors can sense this aeronautical heritage throughout the green space.

Multiple bus lines and tram stations connect directly to the park entrances, with parking available along the edges. Bring comfortable walking shoes since there are many paths to explore throughout the grounds.

The water features in the park form a network of connected areas that provide habitat for numerous local bird species. This water system plays an important role in supporting the park's natural diversity.
