Many people say, Milano is a very unattractive touristic destination, exept for business or fashion shows, there are no other reasons to visit it. How wrong.
The truth is, Milano is a very huge town with over four millions people and.....
Postoji jedna vrlo pogresna percepcija da je grad Milano nezanimljiva turisticka destinacija. Povrsni poznavatelji grada reci ce da osim Duoma ovdje i nema bog zna sto za vidjeti. Cinjenica je da se u ovom velikom gradu covjek osjeca izgubljenim, ali to je samo na prvi pogled tako.
Ako se podje od pretpostavke da je Piazza Duomo ishodiste s kojeg kreces u istrazivanje grada, sve najzanimljivije atrakcije nalaze se u krugu od kojih dva kilometara, a to je udaljenost koja se vrlo lako savladava.

Via Dante - Milan

On the other hand, this is the shortiest way to get Castello Sforzesco from the direction of Piazza Duomo.

Torre Velasca

Torre Velasco

Velasca Tower represents an unusual and bold concept of a highrise apartment building. The 345 foot tall skyscraper was designed in 1958 by Ernesto Nathan-Rogers, Lodovico Barbiano di Belgiooso and Enrico Peressuti.

    I've booked a visit to Milan for the end of March / beginning of April, and even managed to snag tickets for two different opera performances at La Scala. Thanks for your interesting tips on what else to see.

    Excellent page. Next week I'll be in Milan; it's true, it's my third time there but I'm still very excited. Milan fascinated me from the first moment and I've seen some new places here that I didn't visit. Thanks for giving me these wonderful ideas.
