The Canale Minutara (Minutara Channell) is a tributary of the Canale Naviglio which I have shown here

I walked along its banks during a period of low water level so I could descend along the main embankment to a lower level.

It was a bit strange sensation to be hidden under the ground level by the embankments on both sides of the channell.

If I climbed the embankments I could see the flat countryside...

where it is not uncommon to find ruins and old uninhabited houses.

All images were taken by me with the smartphone camera.
