The Naviglio area of Milan is neat! Before, during or after the antiques market wander around the many unique shops and galleries along the streets of the Naviglio canal.
Make a day of it and leisurely explore the market and this funky area of Milan. Take a break, have some lunch or stay later and finish up your day with a great aperitivo.
Held on the last Sunday of every month except for July. Covering almost two kilometres overlooking the banks of the Naviglio Grande, the oldest canal in Milan.
Furniture, clocks, porcelain, silver, jewelry, dolls, games, collectibles, books, glasses, radios, modern antiques, canes, bronze, glass, comics and prints are displayed. During the days of the event, all the shop-owners of the area and all the restaurants and numerous art galleries remain open so as to add to the pleasure of visiting the exhibition.

Some interesting items there! Looks like it would be a fun place to walk through and browse. I also dig the table set up around that car!
What a visual treat – especially the car server! I’m a huge fan of vintage markets. It’s such a wonderful introduction to the city, area and people wherever you are in the world. If you ever come to San Diego don’t miss the Little Italy Farmers Market (and so much more.)
