Italian Grand Prix Location
The Autodromo Nazionale Monza is located in the large forested Royal Park just fifteen kilometres outside of Milan. The area is predominantly residential and nearby town of Monza is a significant economic centre for the region. Most people commute to the racetrack from Milan, the largest city in Northern Italy. As well as being one of the fashion capitals of the world, Milan is also known for its retail and contains the world's oldest shopping mall. The city has a large sporting presence thanks to its football club, AC Milan, who have won the European Championship seven times. The local Government is trying to make the city one of the most modern in Europe and there is currently a lot of new architecture under construction. The idea is to have the renovation finished by the 2015 Expo but there is some opposition to the move as some residents feel it is ruining the historic image of the town. Milan was very significant to the Roman Empire and it was the capital city of the area that now covers all of Western Europe. Interestingly, Milan has its own Catholic Rite in the same way that Rome does.
