Touring Milan, Italy Neighborhoods – Finding a Citta Studi Hotel by Levi Reiss
The Citta Studi district is located in eastern Milan. This university district is home to the largest Italian technical university Polytechnic of Milan, founded in 1863, and several other faculties including the Universita Statale, the State University devoted to science and many other fields. In general this district is a charming residential area. Many buildings are in Liberty style (built from 20’s to 40’s), with asymmetrical, curvaceous designs inspired by organic sources such as plants and flowers. Common building materials are wrought iron, stained glass, tile, and hand-painted wallpaper. Another site worthy of your time, especially if you have young children is the Museo del Giocattolo e del Bambino (The Museum of Small Toys and Small Children) dedicated to toys, children, and the art of playing whose collection of toys from the Eighteenth Century to the 1960s includes over 2000 playthings. For your convenience we have listed neighborhood hotels in approximate order of cost, starting with the least expensive.
