Описание
If getting to know a city is like a first date, Milan is not about love at first sight. On my tour, you will first fall in love with this city for its content, and as you get to know it better - for its form. I will be your guide to the almost secretive Milan; help you explore its rich history in architecture, main places, layout, and even the Milanese themselves.
What to expect
Classic route with an unusual taste
We will visit the key symbols of the capital of Northern Italy, but at the same time, we will peek into hidden courtyards and discover unexplored places right next to those that are well-known. You will notice the symbolism on the buildings; hear interesting details of their construction; understand how the past of all Milan is reflected in the appearance of the Duomo. In addition to the white cathedral, you will see the Vittorio Emanuele II Gallery, La Scala theater and the ensemble of the square of the same name, Sforza Castle, and the medieval merchants' square.
Milan today, tomorrow, yesterday
I will show you that Milan is an eternal city: you will encounter 2500 years from its foundation to our days. But do not be afraid, the real history of Milan is not a collection of dry dates and boring names, but rather an adventure film, a romantic sonnet, a little drama, romance, and even comedy. We will remember brilliant artists, sculptors, architects, designers, writers, and other creative personalities who were inspired by and will continue to inspire Milan. We will also talk separately about how the city's architecture is reflected in the lives of Milanese people, as well as how they differ from other Italians.
