Chinatown (Via Paolo Sarpi)
Via Paolo Sarpi, Porta Volta-Fiera-Gallaratese-Quarto Oggiaro, Milan, 20154, Italy
Milan's Chinatown is the oldest and most established Chinese community in Italy — centred on the pedestrianised Via Paolo Sarpi between Porta Volta and Piazzale Cimitero Monumentale, where Chinese-Milanese families (many descended from immigrants who arrived from Wenzhou in the 1920s) have created a neighbourhood that blends Italian and Chinese commercial culture with a fluency that only a century of coexistence can produce.
Cimitero Monumentale
Piazzale Cimitero Monumentale, Porta Volta-Fiera-Gallaratese-Quarto Oggiaro, Milan, 20154, Italy
The Cimitero Monumentale is Milan's outdoor sculpture museum — an enormous cemetery where the city's industrial dynasties, opera stars, and artists commissioned tombs so elaborate that walking the avenues feels more like visiting a gallery than a graveyard.
