Bosco Verticale - translated to The Vertical Forest. These iconic buildings were designed by Italian Architect Stefano Boeri are a sight to see! Standing under these 360 foot towers containing over 5,000 trees and shrubs is an experience. Walk around and explore the surrounding areas on Isola, Porta Nuova and Moscova, all within 10-15 minutes of walking distance.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Ciao! Benvenuti! Welcome! My name is Melissa, I am 33 years old, I was born and raised in Toronto, but my parents are Italian which makes me an Italo-Canadian dual passport holder. I grew up spending every summer in Italy travelling from tip to toe, until at 27 years old I decided to move to Milan. I have always been fascinated by the culture, food, people and breath taking landscapes. I have been to every city in Italy, some multiple times. Italy has so many different things to offer according to your travel personality - mountains for hiking and skiing, beaches for those hot Italian summers, cities for shopping and history and everything in between. Anything and everything Italy brings me joy! I am so excited to help you plan for a trip of a lifetime. A presto, -Melissa
