Milan Cathedral truly deserves its reputation as a masterpiece of Gothic architecture! Thousands of exquisitely crafted sculptures adorn its exterior, its spires pierce the sky, and the marble's texture shimmers with a sacred glow in the sunlight. Inside, stained-glass windows cast dazzling light and shadow, the soaring vaulted ceilings create a powerful visual impact, and the tranquil atmosphere allows for a sense of peace. Climbing to the rooftop for panoramic views of Milan, where ancient architecture blends seamlessly with the modern city, makes this visit not only a feast for the eyes of architectural beauty but also a profound experience of historical weight—a truly unforgettable experience.
I think it’s completely worth it, all the art and history that goes through the walls of the cathedral, also the steps you put in while going up the hundred stairs, gorgeous views and experience. Please note that they are currently under renovation so a few parts aren’t available to the public

Beautiful square in stretching from the Duomo to the shopping streets. On a beautiful day it will be packed and have 2-3 wedding couples trying to create epic wedding photos. A little too crowded and beware of pick-pockets.
Reasons to Recommend: no need to pay for combo with lift. There are only 255 stairs and it is not that hard. be sure to go inside of a cathedral in sunny weather you will receive more emotions

You only had 15 mins in the museum and you have to arrive 15 mins before to verify your tickets with passport. If you are really interested then I think it’s worth the trip.
This was the only website where I could get the Lats Supper tickets couple of days before the visit. Confirmation took about a day and we got our tickets. You should do everything as it is written on the ticket. I am glad that I was able to see this masterpiece in real life. 😊

Get there early. There’s a lovely place across the street where you can grab a coffee or gelato and a washroom visit. I had no idea that I would be so moved by seeing Leonardo’s painting of The Last Supper. It moved me to tears. I am so grateful that the efforts were put into preserving and protecting this treasure. Nice book store as you exit. Grateful for UNESCO World Heritage Sites as well.
Best option if you are in Milan and haven’t had the chance to buy the ticket on the official website. Personally, best money I spent so far :)

La Scala Theatre is an extraordinarily unique and profoundly special experience. It was the first time I attended such a captivating performance, and it was absolutely worth it. The theatre is incredibly majestic, giving you the feeling of being an exceptionally special person who goes to an extraordinary place and watches an unforgettable, remarkable performance.

The 5 euro museum ticket felt quite worth it, and I saw a lot of things. Outside the castle is a park, and many people enjoy their weekends on the grass.
Milan's Castello Sforza, a stunning example of 15th-century architecture, boasts an art collection spanning the Renaissance, Baroque, and Neoclassical periods. Compared to other castles, its exhibitions are exceptionally neat and organized. The dome, designed by Leonardo da Vinci, is currently undergoing restoration. The museum also boasts a treasure trove of art, housing precious oil and tempera paintings by Renaissance masters such as Lippi, as well as a rich collection of violins, gold, silver, ironwork, jewelry, furniture, ceramics, and glass.

This is a worthwhile art gallery in Milan. There are several impressive paintings. The gallery is not big, but it is easier for viewers to find the key points. Milan is a beautiful city.
It is worth visiting for art lovers. There are basically classical oil paintings inside. Even I, a layman, admire the delicate and smooth brushwork of the painters. If you have time, you can go and have a look. It is said that you are not allowed to enter at 6 o'clock, but when I came out at 6:10 after visiting, I saw that the door was still open.

Sempione Park is a rare green oxygen bar in the center of Milan! It is next to the Sforza Castle. It is very comfortable to take a walk here after visiting the ancient monuments. The tree-lined avenue is quiet and the lawn is open. Locals often come here to sunbathe and jog. The Peace Arch at the end of the park is very photogenic, especially beautiful in the evening. It is free and suitable for resting and dazed after walking tired. It is more comfortable with fewer tourists!
A large public park in Milan, with squares at both ends from which you can see the Sforza Castle. It has a very obvious symmetrical layout with a pool in the center, where activities are often held.

A Night of Football Glory at the San SiroThe San Siro stadium in Milan is a legendary venue, and witnessing AC Milan take on Brugge there was an unforgettable experience. The atmosphere was electric, with passionate fans creating a cacophony of noise that reverberated around the stands. The stadium itself is an imposing structure, a testament to the rich history of Italian football.The game itself was a thrilling encounter, with both teams displaying skill and determination. AC Milan ultimate
Excellent experience touring the stadium. Unfortunately while we were there the pitch was boarded up for a concert however it was great seeing the changing rooms for both teams and walking through the tunnel. The museum was an added bonus and incredible to see trophies and football shirts from iconic moments in sporting history.

visited lake como in November 2023, I wouldn’t recommend going at that time of the year as we experienced a lot of rain, nonetheless it was still a beautiful place, with lots to do! We went to Bellagio and Varenna by ferry, which was super easy to use and both places were breathtaking
Just beautiful! So relaxing and breathtaking. Would love to come here in the summer and take the ferries to other towns and beaches.
