Things to do in Milan, Lombardy: The Best Museums

April 5, 2022 Moriah Teneyck

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.

If you are interested in technologies and various types of vehicles, you will have to allow at least 3-4 hours for this museum. We had no idea what to expect and it was a bit confusing at the beginning but soon we were smitten with the exhibitions. The museum has a section dedicated to Leonardo's works and it houses the world's largest collection of models, made on his drawings. Beside that one, there are many other different sections covering all aspects of world's industry with lots of items on display - Transport, Space, Telecommunications, Energy, Steel and Rubber Processing, etc. The museum is arranged in a former monastery, it covers a huge area and houses its vast collections in several buildings. Very interesting was the guided tour in the "Enrico Totti" submarine. The ex-naval officer who was in charge of the tour, gave all the information in Italian and in English for all the visitors. In one sentence, the museum is awesome and recommended for science enthusiasts and curious, inquisitive children of all ages.
