It is said that the dome of Milan's Duomo is visible on a sunny day from the top of Mont Blanc in the Alps. Well, what else can you add?
I really liked it - an ancient and salty place
A central place to visit while in Milan. There are always a lot of people. It is impossible to get into the Duomo day in and day out. It is necessary to order in advance via the Internet. It's a very atmospheric place.
It's just some kind of miracle! Lace in marble. Just to see it, it's worth visiting Milan. I recommend taking an entrance ticket immediately with a visit to the roof, cathedral and museum. Tickets are on the website, you can also get a Russian-language audio guide there. To avoid queuing, use the fast track options
How beautiful is this unique white marble Gothic Milan Cathedral in Europe (Cathedral of the Nativity of the Virgin Mary), which was built for several centuries (the first blocks and the foundation of the temple were laid in 1386)!!!
Some unknown force has been pulling me there since 1999 ...
Maybe it's because In 1805, Napoleon I Bonaparte himself was crowned King of Italy in Milan Cathedral?!
Well, what kind of former law enforcement officer does not dream of being either Napoleon or a prosecutor for a while?!
There is an amazing atmosphere around, musicians are all around, an invasion of pigeons, the cathedral is illuminated by lanterns in the evening and it seems that it has fallen into a fairy tale
Unfortunately, the photo does not convey the full grandeur of the cathedral. But when you are next to this splendor, it takes your breath away! This is an unrealistically beautiful building!
It causes delight and admiration! Especially after the rooftop tour! A real masterpiece

The cathedral delights with its grandeur, the detailing of the marble facades and the interior decoration! Be sure to visit it if you want to walk around Milan.
There is always a huge queue of people at the entrance, so it is better to buy tickets in advance via the Internet.
The most popular tourist destination, where thousands of onlookers flock to Milan.
The area around the temple is packed with people - there is nowhere to fall. Cafes and restaurants are densely packed with visitors from morning to evening, so it is very problematic to have lunch here. But you can go on an excursion inside the temple or for a fee to its roof... It's very interesting there.👍
By the way, there is also a famous indoor shopping gallery nearby (Victor Emmanuel II Gallery), where all kinds of boutiques of the coolest brands are located, in which the world elite dresses. As for the prices in these establishments... they make normal people uncomfortable, but the elite... It's okay, I guess I've already gotten used to it. 😄
