Licensed Tour Guide

Milan Local

Located a short walk from Sforza Castle, Arco della Pace (The Arch of Peace) stands proudly at the entrance of the largest green space in Milan, Parco Sempione. Before strolling through its English gardens or attending a sporting event at Arena Civica inside, visitors will see the 25-meter-high marble and granite city gate designed to honor Napoleon. It comes alive at night when a light show shines on the Neo-Classical facade and memorial statues above.
