Travel to Milan if you like:
🌴 Jungle 🗼 Landmark 🏘️ TownIn a country used to having cities as special as Venice, as beautiful as Florence, or with as much history as Rome, talking about a trip to Milan seems like sacrilege. But today we're going to show you that it's really worth it, by telling you what are the best things to see and do in Milan. 1. The Duomo, the symbol of Milan If you think the Duomo is a real treat, climbing up to the roof will leave you open-mouthed. The ticket to enter the Duomo costs €3 and the combined ticket that includes access to the underground and the terraces costs €15, but you have to walk! (If you want to book online you can do it). Entry is included if you have the Milan Pass. 2. Piazza del Duomo Once there, take the opportunity to stroll around the Piazza del Duomo, which is always lively and where you can take some great photos. Did you know that the Statue of Liberty in New York was inspired by the statue of the New Law, which is on the façade of the Duomo? Its author (Camillo Pacetti) sculpted it in 1810, a few years before Frédéric Auguste Bartholdi designed his masterpiece. 3. Vittorio Emanuele II Gallery A short distance from here you will come across another of Milan's great protagonists: the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II. It is a building with several galleries covered with glass ceilings and spectacular vaults. That's over your head, at street level there are luxury shops and restaurants. Here you can also perform a ritual that apparently brings luck: step with your heel on the "attributes" of the bull in the famous mosaic in the centre of the Galleria.
