1. GO TO THE LAST SUPPER!<\/strong><\/h3>\n

For all\u00a0Leonardo da Vinci\u2019s fans:\u00a0Leonardo da Vinci\u2019s The Last Supper\u00a0is Milan\u2019s best-known attraction, but it\u2019s hard to get some tickets so, don`t forget to use your best tennis to go there.<\/p>\n

2. GET SOME CULTURE AT THE TEATRO ALLA SCALA!<\/strong><\/h3>\n

\"teatro<\/p>\n

The discreet fa\u00e7ade of Teatro Alla Scala\u00a0and\u00a0the world\u2019s most famous opera house. Look out for a superb programme of popular operas throughout 2015, under new musical director Riccardo Chailly.<\/p>\n

3. HOP ON A TRAM!<\/strong><\/h3>\n

\"TRAM<\/p>\n

Milan\u2019s original yellow and orange 1920s and 1950s trams have varnished wooden seats and iconic fluted glass lampshades. Alternatively, book an evening ride on\u00a0ATMosfera, a vintage tram serving up dinner with wine.<\/p>\n

4. VISIT\u00a0SOME CLASSIC ART GALLERIES!<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Thanks in part to Napoleon, who dumped much of his northern Italian loot here, the Pinacoteca di Brera\u00a0contains one of the most important art collections in Italy. Smaller but with works every bit as important, the\u00a0Pinacoteca Ambrosiana houses, The Musician, an early painting by Leonardo da Vinci and a lock of Lucrezia Borgia\u2019s (Rodrigo Borgia\u2019s daughter) strawberry blonde hair.<\/p>\n

5. DISCOVER MICHAELANGELO\u2019S UNFINISHED MASTERPIECE<\/strong><\/h3>\n

You know, Milan is the world of design. So, don`t miss this kind of details like the unfinished masterpiece by Michaelangelo. Is on the Castello Sforzesco\u00a0that is one of the city\u2019s most precious artworks: Michaelangelo\u2019s uncompleted sculpture, the Piet\u00e0 Rondanini.<\/p>\n

6. NAVIGATING BY THE NAVIGLI WATERWAYS, IS IT YOUR KIND OF THING?\u00a0<\/strong><\/h3>\n

A network of canals, partly designed by Leonardo da Vinci, once stretched right across the city, but these days the\u00a0Navigli are confined to two long waterways \u2013 the Naviglio Grande and the Naviglio Pavese. A welcome alternative to the slicker style associated with the fashion-obsessed centre, the bohemian canals are lined with pavement caf\u00e9s, vintage shops and the occasional gallery. A popular antique market is held on the Naviglio Grande on the last Sunday of every month.<\/p>\n

\n7.\u00a0<\/strong>LUNCH WITH ITALIAN PEOPLE AT LUINI<\/strong>\n<\/h3>\n

You\u2019ll know you\u2019re entering Luini\u00a0Land when you see the crowds of youngsters crouching on doorsteps on a backstreet beside the Duomo, clutching greasy paper bags.<\/p>\n

8. ENJOY YOUR DAY AT SAN SIRO STADIUM<\/strong><\/h3>\n

The San Siro Stadium is home to two of Italy\u2019s most famous football clubs: FC Internazionale and AC Milan. You can enjoy of a football game or take a tour of the museum and stadium on a non-match day.<\/p>\n

9. SANTA MARIA PRESSO SAN SATIRO \u2013 A GOOD TRICK OF THE MIND!<\/strong><\/h3>\n

\"NTA<\/p>\n

Walk through the door, and you might presume that the gilded apse at the end of the barrel-vaulted nave stretches back for at least two or three metres. Get up close, and you\u2019ll see it\u2019s a Trompe-l\u2019oeil niche, with a depth of just 97 centimetres. The great architect Bramante is said to be responsible for this amazing visual trick.<\/p>\n

\n10. AND\u00a0<\/strong>DON`T FORGET TO VISIT SALONE DEL MOBILE, THAT\u2019S WHY YOU\u2019RE IN THE CITY!<\/strong>\n<\/h3>\n
