Monza, the capital of industrious Brianza, is an important economic and cultural geographical area that over time has become one of the wealthiest parts of Lombardy. Geographically it lies 15 kilometres north of Milan, close to Bergamo, Como and Lecco; in less than 30 minutes you can reach the border with Switzerland. The city boasts the largest walled park in Europe, which includes the gardens of the Royal Villa and the National Autodrome, which every year in September hosts the Formula 1 Grand Prix. Monza and Brianza are a prime choice for purchasing a first home for Italian and foreign entrepreneurs, who find splendid green areas, services and infrastructure here.
