An oasis of peace and a true placeof worship for gardening lovers is hidden in the heart of Milan's nightlife,near San Lorenzo’s Columns: the Vivaio Riva (i.e. nursery).

Three thousand square meters ofland, a show of flowers and colours, a maze of vineyards, greenhouses and potswhere to buy beautiful plants and get special advices on their care from thetwo sisters who run the space since the late Sixties.
A corner of rare beauty that isenriched in Summer by botany workshops, activities for children, exhibitionsand book presentations and it transforms into a lovely place for a walk or anaperitif on a bossa nova music background.

Azaleas, jasmines, lemon trees,camellias, primroses and violets: an irresistible floral triumph that makesthis nursery a real outpost of the Rebirth,where to slow down from Milan’s hectic pace and to regain energy and wellness.
