A hidden gem in Milan! Travel back to the Renaissance in an instant~.

As an art lover, I was amazed by the Pinacoteca di Brera on my first visit to Milan! It's a treasure trove of Italian art, with a collection that rivals the Vatican Museums. ⛱️Must-see attractions: - Raphael's sketch of The School of Athens, less well-known than the original in the Vatican but just as wonderful - Caravaggio's Supper at Emmaus, a classic work by the master of light and shadow - Mantegna's Lamentation of Christ, the perspective is amazing! - The Brera Courtyard, perfect for photos, with a strong artistic vibe 🌄Travel tips: 📍Address: Via Brera, 28, 20121 Milano MI, Italy ⏰Opening hours: Tuesday–Sunday: 8:30 am–7:15 pm (last entry at 6:40 pm) Closed on Mondays 💰Tickets: Regular tickets €15, youth tickets (under 26) €2 Tip: Free entry on the first Sunday of every month! 🏨Accommodation tips: I recommend staying in the Brera district, the most artistic area of Milan. - There are many boutiques and cafes nearby - Walking distance to the Piazza del Duomo - Plenty of nightlife 💗Other tips: - Allow 2–3 hours for your visit - You can rent an audio guide in Chinese, which is very detailed - It's busier on weekends, so I recommend going when it opens in the morning - Photography is not allowed in the gallery, but it is in the courtyard - Remember to bring your student ID for a discount - There's a great gelato shop just to the right of the exit! This hidden gem is a must-see in Milan! It's not as famous as the Uffizi, but it's definitely worth a visit. The whole building exudes a strong Renaissance vibe, and you'll feel like you've traveled back to that glorious era. Remember to do your homework in advance and learn about the key works to make your visit more interesting! 🎨✨
