After delaying many times, finally I have dropped to this city. Citta di Milano (city of Milan). This was the second time but when I visited the first time, I did not go anywhere because I have to wait the train to go Basel. For this 2nd periode, really that I wanted to walk in the city and see the beauty of Milan. It is not enough just by this letter to describe the beauty of Milan..
By subway which I payed 1 euro for one time journey, I went directly to Duomo. I was surprised with the style, the size, the relief and anything. It means not only the size which is big but also artistic. Just little dissapointed that I went there and it was under construction. I walked around two times to 'absorb' its beauty. There was a queue to go up by stairway but i did not want to do it as I have to visit many places.

In front of Duomo, in the right side, you will see vitorio emanuelle galery. A kind of pedestrian for shopping covered by glass roof. Really nice. I bought some acessories such as postcards there. The price is around 0.6 euro. So many things that you can buy. In this gallery you can find the thing that has prices, for me, unreachable. Ha ha ha .. too too expensive. There are also some churches near the duomo if you want to visit and also nice. In the piazza duomo, at that time when I visited, there was big skeleton named 'calamita cosmita' made by Italian artist. Very big and nice to get a picture in front of it.

When you walk in front of the doumo follows the street you will find a palace of Sforzesca. It has a big park at the behind of the palace. In the palace, if you want because you have to pay to enter, you can see the old statue of michelangelo or da vinci (if i am not wrong). Because I am not good art-fans so I don't know.
