Basilicas Park, Urban park between two basilicas in Milan, Italy.
Basilicas Park spans 40,700 square meters and connects the Basilica of San Lorenzo with the Basilica of Sant'Eustorgio through green pathways and gardens.
The area transformed from polluted marshlands near tanneries into a public park in 1956, designed by architects Pier Fausto Bagatti Valsecchi and Antonio Grandi.
The park received its current name, Parco Papa Giovanni Paolo II, during the Great Jubilee of 2000 to honor the Catholic leader.
The park opens daily from 6:30 AM to 11:30 PM and features security cameras, fences, and multiple entrances along Via Molino delle Armi.
The gardens contain diverse tree species including maple, European hornbeam, cherry plum, European beech, French oak, elm, black poplar, and pagoda trees.
