Where is the longest bench in the world

The longest bench in the world is currently located in Milan, within the Industria Alfa Romeo park in Portello.

It is 208 meters long and runs along the pond located in the center of the park: it was made with American wood by a company in the province of Bergamo and to create it were used 1,800 wooden slats 4 meters long each but also 25,000 screws and 500 iron legs.

This is a record that not all Milanese citizens know but it is certainly a great pride for the city and for Italy. Milan has also another very long bench, about 100 meters, in the Affori area.
