Rovereto / Pasteur
Where students and professionals live in harmony
Overview
Rovereto / Pasteur is a small but fact-filled suburb of Milan, close to the city centre but with plenty of green to enjoy.
If we were going to pitch the perfect resident of Rovereto & Pasteur, here’s what we’d suggest:
A professional or student, who loves walking, hates the idea of staying indoors at the weekend, and doesn’t want to be kept awake at night.
If this sounds about right, then read on - Rovereto & Pasteur might be perfect for you.
Don’t expect fireworks, though. It’s a tiny suburb so you’ll want to venture a little further out for the best parties.
But we still like it - and that’s what counts.
What can I do here?
Well, if you’re a professional or a student - as we suggested - then you’ll be delighted.
From Pasteur metro station, you can get to Duomo in just 8 minutes. And students, you can get to Citta Studi in 20. Sweet rides, eh?
Love walking? Parco Trotter is the place to go. It is 100,000 m2 of green, has 53 species of tree, and jogging routes to boot.
Or if you’d prefer, Viale Monza is 4.2km of shops, shops, shops. Get some exercise and flash the cash - at the same time!
Street art more of your thing? A lot of the shop fronts on Via Padova are artistically designed - and there is also a set of penguins near the top end of the street (we like the one with the glasses and tie).
If you’re a food fan, and we all are, our number one pick for Rovereto / Pasteur is “Golden Temple”. Expect a huge selection of buffet food and exquisite pasta.
Or if you’re on the move, there’s always Chicken & Chicken.
Yes. Chicken & Chicken. It’s a popular Milanese fast food chain. We recommend the chicken.
Milk fact:
Yep. You guessed it. Pasteur gets its name from Louis Pasteur, the French biologist who discovered a way to make our beer and milk a lot safer to drink. Here’s to you, Louis!
