2025 Milan Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in July)

#Sign up for tripbest7月酒店试睡員 The Milan "Da Vinci Museum of Science and Technology" not only focuses on Da Vinci's technological heritage, but is also the largest permanent exhibition exploring Da Vinci's scientific research. Founded in 1953, with an area of ​​50,000 square meters, it aims to establish an observatory for scientific and technological heritage, and to systematically protect and display historical and contemporary scientific and technological fields in order to commemorate Da Vinci. Please reserve a full day to visit. People think that Da Vinci is a great painter, as famous as Michelangelo and Raphael, but I think that Da Vinci's real interest is not in painting. Painting is a job he has to do all his life. In fact, if you look closely at Da Vinci's life, the job title he is most interested in is "engineer". From bunkers to weapons, from civil engineering to hydraulics, Da Vinci's painting style is significantly different from that of painters of the same period, and is largely based on rational exploration based on science. Da Vinci once served as a military engineer for the Duchy of Milan and designed many facilities and equipment. The name "Da Vinci Museum of Science and Technology" is actually more than a collection of Da Vinci-related items. From the museum's original name, "National Museum of Science and Technology", we can know that it is related to the overall research in the fields of science, technology, industry and innovation history in Italy. The huge venue is divided into seven parts: materials, transportation, energy, communications, Da Vinci's art and science, new fields, and science for young people. The transportation department is further divided into aviation, railways, waterways, and submarines.

#Sign up for June Hotel Test Sleeper 2025 The "National Museum of Science and Technology" (Museo Nazionale Scienza e Tecnologia Leonardo da Vinci) in Milan may sound ordinary, but it is actually the largest science and technology museum in Italy and one of the most important in Europe. Especially the largest transportation hall, Museo Ferroviario, which has large aircraft, ships and train halls, is really surprising. The men in the family were very happy and talked about the Air Force's F-84F Thunder fighter, Fiat G-91R fighter, AC72 Luna Rossa catamaran, Ebe sailboat, Conte Biancamano ocean liner deck, and Enrico Toti S-506 submarine available for visit. I really recommend this activity besides shopping

💰Average Price per Person: 600€ / night 💞Reasons to Recommend: Very cosy, chic and nice atmosphere 📍Address: Via Tommaso da Cazzaniga, 2, 20121 Milano MI, Italy V MAISON BRERA: I was delightfully surprised, as the reviews were not so great online. However, the hotel has great food with refreshing salad options, amazing buffet breakfast. It is pricey but worth it!

#Sign up for June Hotel Test Sleeper 2025 During the Renaissance, Italy was a land occupied by various family forces, and Milan was the Sforza family. So the castles are named after his surname - Castello Sforzesco. Before coming to the Sforza Castle, I thought it would be like the castles and royal palaces we visited outside, with many furnishings, beds, etc., but after arriving, I found out that it had already become 9 museums, which can be visited for a whole day. Originally built in the 13th century as the official residence of the Visconti family, the castle was destroyed by war during the French occupation in the 14th century; it was not until the 15th century when the Sforza family came to power that the castle was restored and rebuilt and became his royal palace. Even if you don't visit the paid museums, it's also good to take pictures outside the castle or in the square inside

#RegisterJuneHotelTestSleeper2025 The Museo della Pietà Rondanini, located within the Castello Sforzesco in Milan, is a deeply moving and intimate experience for art and history lovers. This small museum houses Michelangelo’s final masterpiece, the Rondanini Pietà, and is a testament to the genius and humanity of the artist, who worked on the sculpture until six days before his death. The Pietà is unlike any of Michelangelo’s earlier works – it is raw, incomplete, and deeply emotional. The unfinished nature of the sculpture gives it a haunting beauty that reveals the artist’s evolving spiritual vision. The museum may be small, but it’s well worth the trip to see Michelangelo’s last sculpture.

#RegisterJuneHotelTestSleeper2025 The Museo Arti Decorative in Milan is located in the Sforza Castle, in some rooms of the Ducal Court and on the second floor of the Rocchetta. It documents the evolution of tastes and styles in luxury, decorative and applied arts from the early Christian era to the 1950s, as well as in the field of artistic glassware. Along the exhibition path, there are many extraordinary artifacts of excellent quality, which are precious documents of glassmakers, potters, sculptors, luthiers, silversmiths, goldsmiths, gunsmiths, tapestry weavers and textile craftsmen active in Europe since the Middle Ages. The collection includes tapestries, weapons, ivory products, bronzes, ceramics, leather, wrought iron, pottery, goldsmith products, clocks, porcelain, enamel, textiles, scientific instruments and glass products.

#Register for June Hotel Tester 2025 The Museum of Musical Instruments of Milan is located in one of the museums in Castello Sforzesco, Sforza Castle, and exhibits a rich and diverse collection of musical instruments from the fifteenth century BC to the twentieth century. The exhibition begins with the collection of the Monzino family: tools and materials for making bowed and plucked string instruments (such as violins and guitars), hacksaws, chisels, etc., and about forty musical instruments. The museum exhibits violas, violins, guitars and mandolins, as well as variant folk instruments from Milan and Naples. The exhibition continues to be organized by typological groupings: string instruments, plucked string instruments, wind instruments srpe, pochette, hand organ and violet, keyboard instruments. All exhibits are instruments from the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries collected by the Monzino family. The exhibits are so rich, and music students must be particularly happy

#Sign up for June Hotel Tester 2025 Assuming that art and culture cultivate our daily lives and gain insight into the mystery of the eternal changes between us and the world. But unknown new artists may not be able to become famous and attract the attention of the world in a short period of time. Assuming that big brands like Prada can use their own fame to attract the attention of the world, this is the key concept of the Prada Art Foundation's activities to continuously nurture and support newcomers. With the opening of its Milan headquarters in 2015, the Prada Art Foundation expounded on its experimental mission and expanded its long-term focus on the relationship between different artistic languages ​​and disciplines. The complex was designed by OMA, founded by Rem Koolhaas, and is the product of the combination of post-industrial social architecture and new spatial concepts. It consists of seven existing structures, including warehouses, laboratories, brewing silos, and three new buildings: Podium, Cinema and Torre. There are many different exhibitions inside, as well as restaurants and coffee shops. It is really a great attraction

This time I used trip.com to book a package for Milan Cathedral that includes an elevator, which is super cost-effective. The package on trip.com that includes an elevator is the same price as the museum package, while other platforms only have tickets that require stairs. Milan is already very hot in May. You can take the elevator to the top floor elegantly to take beautiful photos🤩And basically you can see more arts and crafts on the top floor. If you are in Milan, you must visit the top. Remember to queue up for security check at the left rear facing the cathedral when taking the elevator at Gate 2🛂 (near the side of the La Renaissance department store) #Tickets #MilanCathedral

#Sign up for May Hotel Test Sleeper 2025 Ten years ago, the boss of Prada founded the Prada Art Foundation from the perspective of a pure art lover. Located in the Largo Isarco industrial park in southern Milan, it was once a century-old gin wine brewery. It was renovated and designed by OMA, an architectural firm led by Dutch designer Rem Koolhaas, and has now become a stronghold of contemporary art in Milan. The old winery building is retained and three new structures are built: the Podium base, the Cinema cinema and the Torre tower. The enclosed, independent and open spaces are designed with mirrors and transparency to allow visitors to freely integrate into every corner of the combination of art and architecture. You can take as many photos as you want outside for free. When you come here, you must go up to visit the Torre Tower. The front looks like a simple white box building, and from the side you can see that the architect has cleverly fine-tuned the design variables. By changing the floor shape and building height structure, the experimental nature and uncertainty of the building are increased. Each floor is an independent place, expressing itself through different spaces and light, making the building also a work of art collected by the Fondazione Prada Foundation. The biggest surprise was the inverted rotating mushroom house behind the dark room on the 9th floor. It was so special.

#Sign up for May Hotel Test Sleeper 2025 Holiday Inn Milan Garibaldi Station is a hotel in Milan that is relatively close to Chinatown. It is the most practical and unpretentious hotel in the InterContinental Hotel chain and is located near Garibaldi Railway Station. If you take the Milan airport train, remember not to exit from the lobby. You must go out through the tunnel at the end of Platform 20, which will take a few minutes to get there. It is very convenient to be in the center of Milan, and the tram downstairs can take you to the main attractions for a leisurely tour. Taking the subway actually takes you further. There is a super large Carrefour in ten minutes' walk. If you don't want to walk, turn left at the entrance of the small supermarket. On Saturdays, there is the Isola market in ten minutes' walk. Nice convenient hotel in a great location. Just the right amenities, a small gym, iron and good internet. The room was very clean and warm. Was surprised at the wide selection of breakfast. For the price of around HK$1200 in the CBD, it is really good value for money.

🌟 Ticket Tips ▪️ It is recommended to purchase tickets in advance through the official website.

There are discount coupons available—Alipay is a lifesaver! ▪️ Ticket options include: access to the cathedral interior, rooftop access via stairs, rooftop access via elevator, and the cathedral museum. ▪️ The official website offers single tickets and various combo tickets.

Explore Milan, located in the Lombardy region of northern Italy, during the spring season. This city is easy to navigate with its metro, classic trams, and buses, allowing you to explore every corner and neighborhood. Milan stands out for its creativity and design/fashion scene, hosting world-renowned design studios and iconic works by famous designers. During Milan Fashion Week, you might even bump into celebrities on the streets. For a one-day trip in Milan, start with the Duomo di Milano, a cathedral that has stood the test of time through various eras. Its construction took an impressive 579 years, finally completed in 1965. This lengthy construction period resulted in a blend of artistic and architectural styles from different periods, making the Duomo truly magnificent and awe-inspiring. Inside, you'll find stunning stained glass art, paintings, and thousands of national treasure sculptures. End your visit by heading to the rooftop for breathtaking views. Surrounding the Duomo, you'll find plenty of shops for shopping, as well as restaurants, cafes, and bars to enjoy at your leisure.

#Travel to save the world The exhibition at Fondazione Prada has many rooms showcasing a variety of contemporary art and installation art. The highlight here is the cute mushroom room, perfect for netizens like us to check in. In addition to the mushroom room, which is the highlight, there is also the main building called the "Haunted House", a golden building, and 3 new buildings: Podium, Cinema and Torre, which are used to display permanent art, films and other contemporary art.

#TravelEco Fondazione Prada in Milan is a contemporary art center designed by Rem Koolhaas and OMA, housed in a former distillery building. It combines old and new architecture perfectly. It has three new buildings: the Podium, Cinema and Torre, a 60-meter-high tower with an art gallery, a restaurant and a viewing terrace. The interior uses a variety of industrial and luxurious materials, such as 24-karat gold leaf. The building stands out for its modern design and creative atmosphere, perfect for art and architecture lovers looking for new experiences in Milan.

#Travel to save the world Milan Cathedral or Duomo di Milano is a large and beautiful Gothic cathedral. Construction began in 1386 and took over 600 years to complete. It stands out with pink and white marble and over 3,000 sculptures. On the roof, you can go up to see the city view and take beautiful photos. But be careful of pickpockets, especially in the square in front. It's very easy to get there. Get off the train or bus at Duomo station and walk a few minutes to get there. Anyone who comes to Milan must not miss it.

Standing in front of the Duomo di Milano took my breath away. Photos simply don’t do justice to the scale, detail, and beauty of this gothic masterpiece. Every spire, every statue carved into the façade felt like a piece of living history. What moved me most was climbing up to the rooftop terrace—being up there, surrounded by marble spires and overlooking the heart of Milan, was surreal. It gave me goosebumps! Tips for your visit: •Go early in the morning to avoid heavy crowds, especially if you plan to take rooftop photos. •Book tickets online in advance (get the Fast Track Pass if you’re short on time). •The rooftop has stairs or an elevator—take the stairs if you’re up for the workout and want to save a few euros. •Wear comfy shoes and prepare to be wowed by the view from the top—it’s one of the best perspectives of the city. •Don’t forget to take a moment to just breathe it all in. #DuomoDiMilano #TravelEuropeTips #CathedralVibes #WanderWithWonder #milano #italy

Milan is an exciting but expensive city (especially compared to other Italian cities). I stayed here for just 2 days, but I managed to walk around almost the entire city… and spend nearly all my money 😅 My three-star hotel near the central train station cost a little over €100 per night! 📍Places I managed to visit: 1. Duomo di Milano – it’s better to buy your ticket online. I recommend taking the stairs instead of the elevator — there are usually no queues. 2. Pinacoteca di Brera 3. Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II 4. Navigli district 5. Eataly and Bosco Verticale 6. Castello Sforzesco 7. Starbucks Reserve Roastery: prices are higher than in regular cafés, but the interior is really interesting. 🚇How to get around the city: Public transport isn’t very cheap either. A daily metro ticket costs around €3. Overall, I recommend exploring the city center on foot to truly experience the beauty of Milan! #localguides #historicallandmarks #familytrip #europetrip #milan #italy #scenicspotguide #europe

Finally, arrive at Sforza Castle, concluding this fulfilling trip to Italy. -------- Attraction Recommendations: 🌟 Florence Cathedral: The landmark building of Florence, a treasure of the early Renaissance, don't miss it! 🏟️ Colosseum: Experience the shock of ancient Rome, once the stage for gladiatorial combat. 🕍 Pantheon: See the unique circular dome, which looks even more mysterious and solemn when light penetrates it. -------- 🧳 Travel Preparations: 📞 Remember to get an international phone card for easy communication and staying connected. 🔌 Bring a plug adapter, as Italian plug standards may be different from ours. 🪪 Don't forget your passport and visa, essential for entering Italy. 👗 It's a bit cool in Italy in March, so bring some spring and autumn clothes, as well as comfortable shoes. 🔋 Be sure to bring a charger and power bank to keep your phone charged. 🎒 Finally, carry a small bag with you for change, mobile phone, and other personal belongings. -------- The trip to Italy has come to an end. I hope this journey has made you fall in love with this romantic country. With fond memories, I look forward to seeing you again 👋
