Milano Navigli

The Darsena – harbour – is at the point where the Naviglio Pavese and Naviglio Grande canals meet. It was once an important node for water-borne transport and trade.Furthermore, the Darsena, once connected to the circle of the Navigli, constituted the joining ring with a water circuit, which was for centuries the main channel of supplies, transportation, and commercial traffic in the city. Today it is the hub of the Navigli neighbourhood, with music locales, restaurants, pubs, traditional osterie, little markets, and antique fairs on weekends.

HFF everybody!

So close, so distant

Dear friends, I wish you all a very happy New Year. I’ m still having some little problems which prevent me from using the computer for a long time. Hopefully I will be able to visit your beautiful galleries in the next weeks. Thank you very much for your visits and lovely comments. All the best Adele
