Travel Attractions of the Week: Milan, Italy

Every week I am going to feature different tourist attractions, nice scenery and views from different countries which was visited by my family and friends. Since I am just a virtual traveler this time, I asked permission from them to post their travel photos here in my travel blog. All their photos are credited from them and I’d like to thank them for being so kind and so supportive to me.

For this week I am featuring the beautiful city of Milan, Italy which was visited by my friend who works as a cabin crew of Emirates airlines. She was so blessed in having this kind of job because she has the chance to travel around the world  and visit many beautiful countries and nice places just like Milan.  It is a city that is rich in style and fashion. Not just that, it  also comes with more than its fair share of leading tourist attractions. When you first arrive in Milan, do treat yourself to a guided tour of the city, whether on foot or by bus so that you can see what attractions are on offer and where exactly they are located.

Daily walking tours in Milan are popular for tourists as it takes in many of the city’s most interesting attractions and landmarks.  You should visit The Teatro alla Scala opera house since it is particularly a notable place of interest in the city. There are also many palaces of Milan, such as the Palazzo Borromeo, the Palazzo Marino and the Palazzo Real, amongst many others. Further tourist attractions within the city include the Meazza Stadium, the Rotonda della Besana and the Giuseppe Verdi Music Conservatory. Shows and event are also taking place at the enormous Fiera di Milano Trade Fair complex.

Milan features a wide range of attractions to suit the tastes of all tourists. Its old and impressive structures really amazed me. This is actually the most visited landmarks of the city. I would love to see the Duomo Cathedral and Santa Maria delle Grazie church where da Vinci painted his major “The Last Supper” masterpiece as well as the beautiful sculptures and architectures  as we contemplate the beauty of Milan’s heritage.

I also love to visit The Teatro alla Scala since it is a symbol of Milan where it is  famous for high fashion, celebrities, glamorous parties and some of the world’s best operatic performances.  I haven’t seen a  major opera house yet that is why I would love to see and witness the realm of classical music when we got the chance to  visit Milan on our Europe trip soon. My friend also told me that we should visit Piazza Duomo because we can visit those luxurious shops and charming restaurants with inviting settings and excellent cuisine.
