Milant's inspection should be started immediately from the city center.
The easiest way to get there by subway. Directly on the square Duomo is a way out from the metro station "Duomo".
We walked to the main square on foot from your hotel (near the metro station "Repubblica") on Alessandro Manzoni Street. We passed near the famous theater " La Scala "(IT. - Teatro Alla scala). And would have passed by, if they did not notice the billboard with the opera on this day. By itself, the theater is not very noteworthy, the architecture does not catch up, although in this case the significance of the theater in world art is valued. Inside We were not, although we wanted to buy tickets for the evening opera. There were no tickets at the ticket office, but to buy from the Russian dealers in the transition somehow were afraid ...
Directly opposite La Rock on the square there is a monument to Leonardo da Vinci. And then overlooking the gallery Vittorio Emmanuel II. . This is a covered pedestrian gallery, for many years, which is a place of leisurely walks and meetings of local residents. It is made in the form of a beautiful passage, which is often called the Milan Living Court, there are trendy shops, elegant restaurants and cozy bars.
Passing through the gallery we go out to the Cathedral Square. It is here that is Cathedral Duomo (Duomo) - Church, which is the second largest Christian Cathedral (as well as the world's largest gothic temple). The construction made of white marble is truly grand. And this grace is especially noticeable inside the collection. The main value of the cathedral is the tomb of St. Carla Borromeo. If the time allows you to raise the roof. You can go up on the elevator, although the true traveler will void the stairs by the stairs. The roof of the cathedral is amazing and unique, and impressions from such a walk of indescribable. Here you can walk like in the museum, sit down to relax on the steps of a wide terrace, admire the magnificent panorama. All the sights of Milan will appear in front of you on your palm!
To the right of the Cathedral stands the building, which in the shade of Duomo can not notice - Palazzo Reale . This is the Royal Palace, in which in his time, being in Milan, Mary Teresa lived, Napoleon, Ferdinand I.
Further we are moving towards the military defensive fortress and the residence of the Duke Castle Sforcessko . This is one of the most interesting monuments of Milan. Only here you can "hang" for a whole day. The castle is well preserved and looks very peculiar. The castle presents the last unfinished work of Michelangelo - "Pieta".
Further on Foro Buonaparte go to the side of the square Santa Maria Delle Grazie where the church is the same name. Here is the most famous work of Leonardo da Vinci - the famous fresco "Last Supper" . If you want to go on a taxi, the driver is enough to say "Il Cenacolo", without the address - such is the popularity of "secret inku". Immediately get inside will not work. First you need to defend the queue, take tickets at the box office (8 euros), the time will be specified on the ticket to which you can go (during the expectation of the entrance you can safely have lunch - there are several cafes). Having waited for his turn, passing to the monastery refectory, you are through the tambour system, in which the temperature and humidity of the air are inserted into the hall with fresco. All sit down as in the cinema and watch. Give 5 minutes. It is impossible to talk, take pictures. After that, one minute you can come closer to the fresco - there is a restrictive tape. Exit from the hall - by team ...
Literally two steps from the Church with the "Last Supper", on Via San Wittor, there is an invaluable museum of science and technology, where scientific projects of the Great Scientist and the inventor are presented.
For fans of football in Milan there is no less significant construction than the Duomo - Milan Club Stadium San Siro. (He is called "Giuseppe Meazz" for the fans of Intera). You need to get on the metro station to the station "Lotto", but from the station to the stadium itself for the first time without a card can not be reached. There is a private sector and hippodrome, and it is not particularly not to ask who. At the stadium you can visit the museum and go on a tour of the stadium itself, where incl. Water in the locker room of Milan and Inter players. The excursion is English-speaking (in Russian there is no), but everything is clear. Football fans will like it very much.
