What to do in Three days in Milan


Last June was my 2nd visit to Milan since the beginning of 2019. The main reason for my visit was to attend my good friend's wedding. I've been to Milan many times before, mainly I travel for fashion week's so I never have the chance to see the city itself. I've had three full days to explore the city and believe me when I say, Man, I've had the time of my life. 

Since I have arrived very late on Thursday night, my first full day was on Friday morning.
you may think my first attraction will be the duomo, but since I've been to Milan many times and seen the duomo from every possible angle, this time I used the fact that my hotel was close to the fashion district and I started my trip there. The Fashion District includes such famous streets as Via Montenapoleone, Via Della Spiga, and Via Manzoni, there you will find beautiful streets with high fashion brands such as; Dior, Chanel, Saint Laurent and more...


Since all places are in walking distance, from fashion discreet I walked to Castello Sforzesco, (but I did not enter because I have had tickets to the last supper and I went inside Castello Sforzesco on Sunday instead) and went out to the most gorgeous Sempione Park. 




At the end of Park Sempione, you will find a beautiful Arch that was built to celebrate the Napoleonic victories (basically in every big European city, you will find arch such as this). from there I literally ran 🏃to see the Last supper.

After seeing the " Last Supper" masterpiece by Leonardo DaVinci, I crossed through Santa Maria Della Grazia church and finally went to eat Pizza and drink a Spritzer on the roof of La Rinascente, it has the perfect view of the duomo.
Tip: on the roof, you have few restaurants, I sat at "Obica", The Pizza was absolutely wonderful, the Manager was absolutely not, rude and unpleasant but at least the Pizza was worth it.
To end this perfect day, I went to see "I masnadierian", Opera  by Verdi at " La Scala" 
an unforgettable experience.

The Museum Combined ticket that I bought when I was at " The last supper" gave me free access to all kind of cool Museums, among them is Pinacoteca di Brera, includes some of the greatest masterpieces of Italian art.

On Sunday I returned to Castello Sforzesco and went inside but since it's so huge, I would definitely come back to see everything I missed. 


Shopping is a must in Milan. The streets of Milan are full of fashion, from famous luxury brands to all kind of fast fashion stores and of course lot's of vintage stores.
The main attraction is duomo and it's surroundings.
