After having left the masterpieces of modern architecture in the beautiful Gae Aulentidi square, we continued to walk remaining in the Porta Nuova Garibaldi area and at the foot of the great Italian skyscraper, Egg is called Voci delle Citta (The City of Voices), the first permanent artwork of art created by Alberto Garutti. It is a construction of 23 chromed brass tubes, which extend over four floors where you can talk through them while listening to sounds and changes of words.

Then, we headed for Corso Como, a street that blends with Corso Garbaldi and is a very pretty corner of Milan and is mostly a pedestrian area with charming ringhiera houses with many shops, fashion, cafes and is well known for its multitude of restaurants, bars and discos. In the area there is a small garden called "Anna Stepanovna Politkovskaya Garden". She was a courageous Russian journalist and writer who was murdered in Moscow on October 7, 2006 while testifying to the truth about the horrors of the war in Chechnya. I appreciate that it was dedicated to a person who gave her life for the sake of the truth!
We kept walking continuing to Piazza XXV Aprile which through the square it is connected, to the south, with Corso Garibaldi, with which it forms a long coloured pavement made of stone blocks for the streets built by the Romans, an incredible work of engineering that even today you can walk on the pedestrian promenade which is very common in the streets or sidewalks of Milan.
We arrived at the elegant historic the artist's in the Brera district, which was once the most renowned and sought-after red light district in Milan. It is an incredibly beautiful place surrounded by picturesque narrow streets, charming old renovated houses, cute shops and there is the historic Antica Farmacia di Brera which was opened in the 1700s. While the photo below is the Basilica of Sant'Ambrogio/Basilica of St. Ambrogio is a very ancient basilica of Romanesque architecture.
