The 10 Best Things to do in Scala, Lombardy

July 22, 2021 Stefan Strunk

One of the world’s fashion capitals, Milan offers endless opportunities for chic shopping. Hit the artsy neighborhood of Brera for leather goods and Via Monte Napoleone for exclusive, expensive boutiques. The enchanting mosaics and glass vaults of Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II make shoppers feel like they’re wandering inside a painting. Take break from your spree to gape at the iconic Duomo, then grab tickets to a performance at La Scala. Post-opera, the Navigli district pulses with late-night activity.

This world-renowned opera house was built in 1778, where many composers wrote and conducted works including such greats as Rossini, Puccini, Verdi and Toscanini.

Reviewed By Jazzradio - San Diego, United States

Even if you can't see a performance at La Scala the museum which is part of the complex is well worth a visit, full of opera, ballet, classical music history and fascinating memorabilia, and their is opportunity to peak into the opera house if a performance in progress. An hour well spent.

You don't expect to see skyscrapers when you come to Milano. But you're wrong! Torri Unicredit is really nice and well integrated in the modern complex of Piazza Gae Aulenti.

Museo Teatrale alla Scala

Reviewed By 445nikr - Varna, Bulgaria

We went to this museum because my wife is a big opera fan (wouldn't say so about me). She really loved it and even my son and I were amazed. It is a small museum about La Scala and the opera in general with a priceless collection of musical instruments, original music-books, costumes, paintings and statues of many famous opera singers and composers, posters of operas conducted at La Scala over the years. When you visit the museum, you can also get access to one of the stages and see the opera house inside (provided there are no rehearsals). We combined the museum with a guided tour of La Scala and both were simply amazing. A charming museum, not only for opera lovers!

Battistero Paleocristiano

Reviewed By 445nikr - Varna, Bulgaria

We visited the archeological area as a part of the Duomo ticket. The entrance is from inside the Cathedral and the site is just beneath it. Here you can see the remains of the foundations of the original basilica of St Tecla (on top of which the present Duomo was built), the baptisteries of San Stefano and San Giovanni alle Fonti.
