Indro Montanelli public gardens, or simply Giardini Pubblici, are a park located in the heart of the city of Milan, Italy. It is within easy walking distance of the upscale and trendy Via Montenapoleone, and offers a shady, leafy respite from the hustle and bustle of the busy city. Indro Montanelli public gardens were planned and designed by architect Piermarini in the late 1700s, and covers over 150,000 square meters. Over the years Indro Montanelli public gardens were expanded to encompass monasteries, and the Dugnani Palace Park, and a land grand from a local college included a small grove of trees. There are walkways, trees filled with birds and squirrels, ponds with ducks and swans, and lots of benches and inviting grassy areas for relaxing. In May, Indro Montanelli public gardens are used by local flower vendors and nurseries to host an annual flower expo, and the entire common is covered with white tents and row upon row of lovely flowers. Tables with shade umbrellas are provided so you can sit and enjoy the sight and fragrance of this tradition. It is generally agreed, in fact, that spring is the best time to enjoy Indro Montanelli public gardens, as many of the trees are of the blooming variety. In addition to all of the flora and fauna, Indro Montanelli public gardens include bumper cars, a miniature train, and a dairy bar which sells yogurt, milk shakes, and the like.
