• Milan and its metamorphoses: in the new edition of the Green Guide an exceptional cast reinterprets the inner map of the city where the Italian Touring Club has held firm roots for over 150 years. Places, stories, people introduced by the gaze of the writer Paolo Cognetti, a fine inquisitor of the human soul and urban organisms, who tells how «the soul of a city is not demolished by bulldozers, it moves elsewhere. It hides there and you have to go and look for it if you want to find it again.” The gaze extends from the center to the suburbs, vital nuclei essential for breathing, for the economy and also for the relaunch of city tourism, doors of welcome for new generations of all origins. Six city itineraries and one out of town, recommended addresses and updated Touring cartography. A brief overview of the innovations in this Green Guide: - The doubling of the 20th century museum, the Grande Brera project, the Biblioteca degli Alberi, the Museum of the Resistance... An overview of the city's cultural ferment. - From CityLife to NoLo, from Bovisa to Niguarda, from San Siro to Città Studi: new architectures, markets, social centres, initiatives and projects in the city of neighbourhoods. - Whoever throws seeds in the wind will make the sky bloom: ivan's urban poetry and a map of Milanese street art by Claudia Galal, an expert on urban countercultures. - Bicycle phenomenon: from the cycle paths in the circle of the ramparts to the green belt of the metropolis, on the Navigli and on the Martesana. - Hanging Milan: walk in the Manhattan of Porta Nuova with a glance at the skyscrapers of Isola and Porta Nuova. - The football derby towns and the partnership between soccer balls and Milanese fashion told by the Milanese journalist Michele Bernelli. - From Nanni Svampa to Giorgio Gaber, from Jannacci to Celentano, from Vecchioni to Ruggeri: a generation of songwriters in the story of Riccardo Bertoncelli, rock historian. - Wine bars with drinks, old-fashioned patisseries, bars with terraces, aperitifs and the timeless rituals of drinking Milan.
