Piazza Gae Aulenti
The square and the surrounding buildings are the results of the regeneration of the neighbourhoods Garibaldi, Isola and Varesine. The area is a mix between the city’s historic centre and the financial district. The square is surrounded by various buildings, all with a surprising design. The most impressive is the 231-meters tall Unicredit Tower, which is currently the highest skyscraper in Italy: to enjoy one of the best panoramic views of Milan, you can climb to the top of the tower. Another of the highlights is The Vertical Forest, a pair of towers covered by 2.000 species of plants. A footbridge connects the square to the Corso Como, one of Milan’s liveliest streets with plenty of stores, restaurants and bars.
