There are museums to explore, cathedrals to visit, unique malls to shop at, and an array of restaurants to try in this city, which is also known as the fashion capital.

Alternatively, long-distance buses and car rentals are available.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_is_Milan_Best_Known_For\"><\/span><strong>What is Milan Best Known For?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Milan, a city with unparalleled global stature is the leader in Fashion, Design, Architecture and so much more!<\/p>\n<p>Milan has always seamlessly combined tradition and modernity and continues to do so even today. Milan hence enjoys attention from all over the world. Be it for Fashion, Architecture, Sports, or Food, Milan takes the cake in all.<\/p>\n<p>Known worldwide for its significant role in the fashion and design industries, Milan is also home to the Quadrilatero della Moda(Fashion Square), a district known for its upscale stores and high-fashion boutiques.<\/p>\n<p>Milan also organizes the esteemed Milan Fashion Week. Milan&#8217;s rich cultural legacy is exemplified by the moving artwork The Last Supper by Leonardo da Vinci and the Gothic Cathedral, Il Duomo.<\/p>\n<p>Two of its strongest teams, AC Milan and Inter Milan, are a testament to its passion for football. Some of the mot-to-miss features of Milan are Milan&#8217;s design at Salone del Mobile, the opera at La Scala, and delicious food centered around wine and risotto.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Here_are_some_of_the_best_things_to_do_in_Milan_in_one_day\"><\/span>Here are some of the best things to do in Milan in one day:<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1Piazza_del_Duomo\"><\/span>1.Piazza del Duomo<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>If you only have time to see just one place in Milan, most people would suggest the Piazza del Duomo. One of the most striking buildings in the city, Piazza del Duomo is a Gothic-style cathedral, which is believed to have taken centuries to complete. While the cathedral is impressive from the outside, it is even more beautiful from the inside.<\/p>\n<p>Earlier, there used to be a huge queue of visitors to get inside almost every day, especially during the holiday season. But guess what? Recently, they have introduced ticketed slots. This means you can plan your visit well and enjoy both the Duomo and the rooftops.<\/p>\n<p>The Duomo terraces give you an incredible view of the 135 towers and spires that make for the roof of the cathedral. The view is surreal and amazing, and something that would remind you of your Milan visit for years to come.<\/p>\n<div class=\"tablbg\"><strong>Insider Tip :<\/strong> This location is a bit expensive. So, we suggest you plan your trip accordingly, but make sure not to miss this worth-it place.<\/div>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2Galleria_Vittorio_Emanuele_II\"><\/span>2.Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-938\" src=\"http:\/\/www.italyvisa.ae\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Galleria-Vittorio-Emanuele-II.jpg\" alt=\"Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II\" width=\"1024\" height=\"767\" \/><br \/>\nWhen you are in a new city for just a day, shopping is usually not on your itinerary. But this is not what we are aiming at by mentioning Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II in this list of things to do in Milan for a day. This 19th-century building is one of the oldest shopping malls in the city and one of the most stunning too. Complete with detailed mosaics, a glass-roofed gallery, and intricate designs, this shopping mall is no less than a museum. In the interiors of the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II are stores of some of the largest brands including Louis Vuitton, Prada, Gucci, etc. Shopping at the mall is extremely expensive and not really recommended unless you have the money to splurge. Instead, walk around the place visit one of the historical restaurants or cafes, and grab a snack or a drink while admiring the structure.<\/p>\n<div class=\"tablbg\"><strong>Insider Tip :<\/strong> As per a recent amendment, you are also allowed to visit the rooftops of the Galleria Vittorio. However, reviews suggest that it is ok to skip this if you have only one day in Milan.<\/div>\n<hr \/>\n<div class=\"blog-title-link-wrap\"><strong><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">\u00a0Suggested Read: <a style=\"color: #ffffff;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.italyvisa.ae\/blog\/shopping-desires-in-italy\/\">Best Places for all to enjoy Shopping in Italy<\/a><\/span><\/strong><\/div>\n<hr \/>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3La_Scala_Opera\"><\/span>3.La Scala Opera<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-939\" src=\"http:\/\/www.italyvisa.ae\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/La-Scala-Opera.jpg\" alt=\"La Scala Opera\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.italyvisa.ae\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/La-Scala-Opera.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.italyvisa.ae\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/La-Scala-Opera-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.italyvisa.ae\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/La-Scala-Opera-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.italyvisa.ae\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/La-Scala-Opera-640x480.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.italyvisa.ae\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/La-Scala-Opera-200x150.jpg 200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><br \/>\nAlthough you may not have the time to watch an opera, a visit to La Scala Opera should be on your itinerary. One of the oldest and the most famous theatres not only in Italy but the entire world, La Scala Opera dates back to 1778. While the exterior of the building is quite plain and not very impressive, the interiors have a different story to tell. A guided tour is available in the afternoon, and it would help you to know more about the history of the place and some poignant performances as well. However, you need to book for the tour in advance.<\/p>\n<div class=\"tablbg\"><strong>Insider Tip :<\/strong> Check the Opera Calender and book the tickets for the Opera itself. This will save you time from readjusting your whole itinerary. Plus, this is probably the most amazing experience in Milan.<\/div>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4Castello_Sforzesco\"><\/span>4.Castello Sforzesco<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-940\" src=\"http:\/\/www.italyvisa.ae\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Castello-Sforzesco.jpg\" alt=\"Castello Sforzesco\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.italyvisa.ae\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Castello-Sforzesco.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.italyvisa.ae\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Castello-Sforzesco-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.italyvisa.ae\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Castello-Sforzesco-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.italyvisa.ae\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Castello-Sforzesco-640x426.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.italyvisa.ae\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Castello-Sforzesco-200x133.jpg 200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><br \/>\nTo be frank, you cannot explore the Castello Sforzesco completely if you only have a day in Milan. This 15th-century castle is home to the Dukes of Milan, who ruled the city before it became a part of Italy. The enormous castle is home to numerous museums, art galleries, and a huge museum. However, as you are short of time, visiting any of them would be difficult. Instead, choose to roam around the grounds of the castle (for free) and admire the beautiful architecture of this medieval castle. Check out the beautiful fountain, Fontana di Piazza Castello, which is an important part of the castle.<\/p>\n<div class=\"tablbg\"><strong>Insider Tip :<\/strong> Triennale Design Cafe is located on the top floor of the design museum Le Triennale di Milano. You may have your lunch here as the food tastes amazing and the views are a plus.

Once a part of the Castello Sforzesco, the Porta Sempione welcomes you with the Arco della Pace (Arch of Peace), not too different from the Arc de Triomphe in Paris. The garden is filled with grassy fields, shaded walking paths, and beautiful, colorful flowers. Relax and give your legs the much-needed rest for some time, before you head to the next location<\/p>\n<div class=\"tablbg\"><strong>Insider Tip :<\/strong> This is away from the usual tourist crowd and a walk here offers a unique and lesser-known view of Italy.<\/div>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"6Cenacolo_Vinciano\"><\/span>6.Cenacolo Vinciano<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-942\" src=\"http:\/\/www.italyvisa.ae\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Cenacolo-Vinciano.jpg\" alt=\"Cenacolo Vinciano\" width=\"1024\" height=\"577\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.italyvisa.ae\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Cenacolo-Vinciano.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.italyvisa.ae\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Cenacolo-Vinciano-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.italyvisa.ae\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Cenacolo-Vinciano-768x433.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.italyvisa.ae\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Cenacolo-Vinciano-640x361.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.italyvisa.ae\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Cenacolo-Vinciano-200x113.jpg 200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><br \/>\nAlthough you would not be able to see all the art works that Milan is famous for, there is one you must not miss. Head to Cencolo Vinciano to get your eyes on the large mural of The Last Supper by Leonardo da Vinci. The only problem is getting an entry ticket at the last moment is nearly impossible. All the slots are booked months before. So, if you have had some time planning your holiday, this is the one you need to book as soon as possible. Once you have the tickets, you can enter the place and have a look at the marvellous painting for 15 minutes without interruption.

It is home to the Academy of Fine Arts, the 18th-century school of arts, which is the alma mater of several renowned artists. Moreover, Picacoteca di Brera, the largest art museum in Milan, is also located here. If you arrive early, do take time to visit the museum, the astronomical observatory as well as the Braidense National Library, which is beautiful and one of the unknown gems of the city. Once you take a quick tour of the museum, explore the neighborhood by walking on the cobbled streets. As the night sets in, Brera comes to life, and you get to enjoy its classic boutiques, gourmet restaurants, and quaint cafes.<\/p>\n<div class=\"tablbg\"><strong>Insider Tip :<\/strong> Visiting the Braidence National Library will only take a few minutes of your time.

A day&#8217;s tour in Milan would be exhausting but nothing less than exhilarating. Moreover, as soon as you are travelling away from the city, you would be making plans to have a longer holiday in this fashionable Italian city.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Where_to_eat_during_your_one_day_in_Milan\"><\/span><strong>Where to eat during your one day in Milan?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Like the rest of Italy, Milan has a thriving food culture and its delectable cuisine.
