Castel Sforza
Favorite thing: Carrying the name of Francesco Sforza, the impressive fortress spreads on several hectares.
Surrounded with brick battlements dark red, nearly violine, it is punctuated regularly of towers. Inside, an immense court, then more far from the yard, inside the walled surrounding wall...
Milan - Galeria Vittorio Emanuelle
Favorite thing: The Galeria Vittorio Emanuelle possesses an entry on the place in front of The Scala, and the other entered on the place, next to the Duomo.
It is a commercial gallery typical of the XIX th century, to the impressive measurements.
The entry of the side of The Scala, is monumental, but of reasonable measurements. It is located at the bottom of the place.
The entirely glazed arch is remarkable, with in its center a very impressive dome.
The entry that is of the side of the Duomo to been treated of monumental way, with an air of Triumph bow. Many fast-food is implanted there.
Fondest memory: Close to the entry, an all small boutique, nearly petty, must not escape your attention. It is the famous Borsalino store, the creator of the famous hat.
The Galeria Vittorio Emanuelle is the place of a strange custom and you should not wonder therefore if, in its center you see some ladies, or of the girls to deliver themselves to a very particular pagan ritual :
On soil, a bull made of ceramics has, he decorated the power to bring to the women happiness in their emotional and in love relation. For it, she must put the foot on a very precise part of the reproduction of the animal, and to make three tower on her even. You will mark the place where to put the foot and the part of the animal in question when you will see the wear of the ceramics.
Il Duomo of Milano
Favorite thing: Il Duomo is the famous cathedral of Milano.
If the volumes are massive and heavy, the monument is covered entirely of a lace of sculptures that makes a major work of it. You will be able to pass of hours to admire all details and the sophistication of these sculptures...
La Scala of Milano
Favorite thing: Difficult to work in the cultural area, to surrender in Milano, and not to be going to see this mythical monument that is La Scala.
Fondest memory: Alas, it was closed at every time that we presented ourselves before the doors.
