This park opened in 1991 and is a semicircular shape around the Milanese metropolitan area. There is more than 40,000 hectares of land here, and it has conserved its agricultural purpose and the typical characteristics of irrigated Lombard land, which has been exploited since the Middle Ages when the monastic orders first irrigated their farmland. The network irrigates the Navigli canals as well as other rivers which make the park area a natual reserve of great environmental and cultural interest. The New Fountain at Bareggio, the Oasis of Lacchiarella, the woods of Vanzago, the system of great, Lombard pools, the rural villages and the splendid abbeys of Chiaravalle, Mirasole and Vipoldone are the main attractions in this area.
