Built in the late 16th century for the Third Order of Saint Francis, much of its interior including decoration and paintings has been preserved.
Chiesa di Santa Maria al Paradiso is a church in Milan, Italy. It was begun in 1590 for the Third Order of Saint Francis, after designs by Martino Bassi. The facade, however, was only added in 1897 in a Neo-Baroque style by the architect Ernesto Pirovano (1866–1934).

Parco della Guastalla
Among Milan's oldest (founded in the 16th century), but quite small gardens, and are very close to the University district. The parks, however, were only opened to the public in the early 20th century. You can have a nice walk inside, and you also have a classical temple-like structure and also a sort of pond with a Baroque railing surrounding it. Reachable via Crocetta, P.ta Romana, Missori or even San Babila metro stations. It's also not that far from the Duomo.
A late 15th-century church and sanctuary with many works of Milanese Baroque and Renaissance artists.
The southeastern city gate, the "gate towards Rome" is simpler built than Ticinese. However Milan has had a "Porta Romana" as a part of its city walls already when the city was part of the Roman Empire. It has given the name to the district it's in, and to the nearby Metro station.
An 18th-century Neoclassical complex. It is now an exhibition space.
Parco Papa Giovanni Paolo II or Parco delle Basiliche
Named the Basilicas Park as it connects two basilicas: the Basilica of San Lorenzo and the Basilica of Sant'Eustorgio. Formerly a place for drug use and anti-social behavior, it has been cleaned up and redesigned and is now more pleasant. It was renamed after the late Pope John Paul II.
A 19th-century gate and the surrounding area is a very old-fashioned quarter nearly untouched by World War II bombings.
