There’s a world to discover in the Milan surroundings, rich in landscapes and history. 1. As one of Italy’s three biggest Italian lakes – with Lake Garda and Lake Como – Lake Maggiore is the quietest, a welcome respite from busy city life. Do not forget to visit Isola Bella, one of the three islands settled in the middle of the lake. 2. Explore the Oltrepò Pavese- beyond the river - one of Italy’s best kept secrets, just about 50 km from Milan. Surrounded by rolling hills of vineyards, it is the ideal destination for those wanting to have a sublime wine tasting. 3. Just about two hours drive instead, you’ll reach Desenzano del Garda, a charming picturesque town on the shores of Lake Garda. Between Roman villas and intricate gardens, Desenzano del Garda is perfect for a 1 day trip outside Milan. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 📸 @matteo.capirola @aspettachefacciounafoto_ @giacomo.sonzini ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #theitalyinsider #isolabella #howitalyfeels #aesthetic #lakegarda #slowlivingaesthetic #ig_italia #italia365 #inviaggiocontraveller #slowtravel #mindfulnesstravel #whatitalyis #desenzanodelgarda #vineyards #travellingthroughtheworld #likelike #theitalyinsider #yallersitalia #don_in_italy #vsco #vscocam #acolorstory #italiaincartolina
