Autodromo Nazionale Monza

Since 1922 up until today, memorable pages of motor racing and motorcycling history have been written on the Monza Circuit. The best drivers, the most famous cars, the most important events have created a special legend which has existed for almost 100 years. Autodromo Nazionale Monza is placed within Monza Park which belongs to the cities of Monza and Milan. Monza Circuit was built in 1922, in only 110 days, both for competitions and for motor (auto & motor cycle) testing (Brooklands was built in 1907 and Indianapolis in 1909). Since then, the Italian Grand Prix has always taken place on the Monza track (except during the war years and a few other occasions). The location of the Circuit in Monza Park, is unique in the world. This natural setting is both attractive and delightful. Its location favours the organisation of events and meeting in open areas for exibitions, entertainment and music and supported by internal structures, as a restaurant with 350 places, a 160-person self-service and 2 bars, one bank counter and one information office which are open during the main events. Moreover there are sport and technical shops and a specialized bookstore with international and rare editions. The park offers also other facilities as swimming pool, camping, 18-hole golf course, manège and bicycle rental.

Lesser known than the Monaco Grand Prix, the Italian Grand Prix at Monza is just as much fun. Italy is known for its sports cars and car racing, with Alfa Romeo, Ferrari, etc. Go a few days early and savor the history.

A must go if you are in Milan area to experience this unique park in the middle of the city. Free entrance and you find plenty of spaces to chill out while laying on the grass or rent a bike and cycling the many paths around the park. There is also a small river and the amzing Villa Reale if you enjoy history and art. Thumbs up!

Villa Reale

The Villa Reale was built at the wish of the Empress Maria Theresa of Austria between 1777 and 1780, as a summer residence for her son Ferdinand. It followed the typical model of Lombard country homes. The building was planned by Piermarini, in neo-classical style, with a C-shaped layout and a central reception block. To these were added two lateral wings for the rooms and a further two sections dedicated to the servants and the stables. The total number of rooms was close to seven hundred.

As you probably can tell from the pictures posted by other TA reviewers, this really is a palace as opposed to a villa. We visited in July and joined a tour of the royal apartments, which was amazing and really gives you a glimpse into how the royalty were living in the past. The guide was excellent and seemed to really enjoy his job. The tour also was interesting in that it was a combination of tour guide-guided tour and audio-guided tour, and it was conducted in both Italian and English at the same time. So the tour guide would briefly explain in Italian first and then in English (sometimes in reverse order) and then tell everyone to push certain number on an audio device for a more detailed description of the room in Italian and another number for English. I think this was an efficient way to entertain both crowds and it got the job done. After the tour we visited the exhibits on the 2nd floor and the lady staff member there was most friendly and helpful, explaining to us what exhibits are being displayed on which floor. The art exhibits were very nice and there were not many people when we visited, which was a big plus. There is a separate section for children about some great Italian artists, which was very neat. On the 3rd floor there was a wonderful exhibit on designs of various times (say from 1950's to 1990's). So if you want to take the tour and see the exhibitions it will probably take between 2-3 hours easily. As with the many places we visited in Italy, it's not very easy to find the exits (perhaps they don't want you to leave:)) but we made it okay. There is a nice little gift shop where the staff again was very friendly. There also is a large cafeteria which looks really nice but unfortunately we did not have the time to sit down and order anything. We'll try that next time we visit for sure. Highly recommend visiting Villa Reale.
