10. Cernusco sul Naviglio to Milano

From the south side of Santa Maria Assunta church, cross Via Cardinale Andrea Ferrari and take the pedestrian crossing opposite that leads to Piazza Unita d'Italia. Go along the municipal park via via Fratelli Tizzoni (to the right of the square), cross via Camillo Benso Conte di Cavour and join the canal by crossing the following park:

1. Cross the Martesana Canal and follow it westward. It crosses several increasingly tighter urban areas as it approaches Milan (Vimodrone, Cologno Monzese) following a green strip of vegetation preserved with the presence of water. The canal passes under railway tracks before reaching the A51 motorway.
   
   
2. Pass under the A51 motorway and continue on via Idro along the canal built above the Lambro river. It then curves sharply to the southwest. When via Idro reaches via Padova at the second major change of direction, take the canal bank below via Padova. To visit the Chiesa di Santa Maria Rossa, take the sidewalk from via Padova to the exit of via Idro, take the eighth street on the left (via Santa Maria Rossa) and, at the end of the visit, via Domenico Berra to return to the canal at bridge level.
   
   
3. Follow the canal via Alfredo Baccarini, cross the Parco Martiri della Liberta which borders Ponte Nuovo in the north and Crescenzano in the south and pass under the viale Monza before turning south with the canal. Entering Milan means that the canal and its runway are adjacent to and cross the canal with many railways from the nearby Milan Central Station. The canal stops at the garden of Cassina de Pomm.
   
   
4. Turn left onto a wide straight boulevard (via Melchiore Gioia), cross the Milan ring road (viale Marche) and continue to arrive in a business district with large modern and glazed towers where the Lombardy Regional Palace, international banks and major companies are located. Go around the tunnel on the left under the building that blocks Via Melchiore Gioa by taking Via Giovanni Battista Pirelli and then immediately right into Piazza Luigi Einaudi. Cross the green area after the tower and then the boulevard viale della Liberta diagonally to reach via Melchiore Gioia, which ends at the Bastioni di Porta Nuova. 
   
   
5. Cross it to reach the left via San Marco by stairs. Follow this street to the end marked by the piazza San Marco and then a square marked by a modern stone statue. Go along the square to reach via Brera: at first a pedestrian street with many restaurant terraces that then opens to traffic (single lane) with wide sidewalks at the foot of buildings with character. At the end of this street, continue along the Via Giuseppe Verdi which curves to the left and arrives at the Piazza de la Scala slightly to the right. Cross the square diagonally past the foot of the Leonardo da Vinci monument to take the large glass covered alley (galleria Vittorio Emanuele II) that leads to the Milan Cathedral Square.
