Appartamento in Casarile

This is the flat lower Ticino plain south of Milan, with a landscape of fields, irrigation canals and scattered farmsteads. The Ticino river and the Parco Lombardo della Valle del Ticino lie to the west, within about 15 km, with river woods and wetland areas around the valley. The nearest town of size is Milan, and the closer small centres on this side of the province provide routine services and commuter rail access toward the city. The area is known for rice country, irrigated agriculture and historic cascine of the Milanese countryside.
