Fashion capital Milan

If you're planning a trip to Milan, here's a concise guide: Itinerary • Day 1: • Visit the Milan Cathedral in the morning to admire its elegant white marble and Gothic style, and climb to the top for a panoramic view of the city center. • Then head to the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II, a shopping paradise with all the big brands. The gallery's dome and mosaic floor are also worth admiring. • Visit the Teatro alla Scala in the afternoon to admire its magnificent architecture. If you're interested in opera, you can book tickets in advance to experience the charm of Italian opera. • Day 2: • Visit the Sforza Castle in the morning. There are several museums inside the castle where you can learn about the history and culture of ancient Milan in terms of art, military, etc. The castle walls are also great for photos. • Stroll through Sempione Park in the afternoon to enjoy the fresh air and sunshine. Then head to the Church of Santa Maria delle Grazie to see Leonardo da Vinci's mural "The Last Supper" (reservation required). • Day 3: • Visit the Pinacoteca di Brera in the morning to appreciate the masterpieces of the Renaissance and modern art. • Take photos at the Arco della Pace in the afternoon, then head to Chinatown to taste the flavors of home and buy Chinese souvenirs. Transportation • Milan's subway and buses are very convenient, and you can buy day passes or multi-ride tickets. • If you have time, walking through the streets and alleys of Milan is a great way to discover the unique beauty of the city. Food recommendations • Main courses: Risotto alla Milanese (flavored with saffron and paired with Italian hard rice, often served with braised veal shank), Milanese veal cutlet (crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, with lemon juice for added flavor), pasta (variety of types, with red, green, white, and black sauces). • Desserts and coffee: Tiramisu (sweet and bitter), panna cotta (delicate and smooth, with a strong milky flavor), pistachio cream bun (rich and creamy pistachio cream, soft bread), Italian coffee (such as espresso, cappuccino, latte, etc.). • Snacks: Panzerotti (similar to fried dumplings, with fillings such as tomatoes, cheese, ham, etc.), cheese platter (variety of cheeses with fruits, nuts, honey, etc.).
