For my last place in Italy, it was almost closed to Switzland …

N also would be finished during this long holidays..The final city is ‘Milano’

‘Porta Sempione’ is a city gate of Milan, Italy.

The name “Porta Sempione” is used both to refer to the gate proper and to the surrounding district, a part of the Zone 1 division, including the major avenue of Corso

Triumphal arch with bas-reliefs & statues, built by Luigi Cagnola on the request of Napoleon

‘Sempione Park’ is Park & gardens landscaped by Emilio Alemagna, with a tower, aquarium, theater & municipal library.

Piazza Sempione, 20154 Milano MI

Parco Sempione is a large city park in Milan, Italy.

Established in 1888, it has an overall area of 38.6 hectares

, N it’s located in the historic centre of the city, inside the Zone 1 administrative division.

In this the biggest park in Milan, there’s an old castle which is ‘Sforza Castle’ is in Milan, northern Italy.

It was built in the 15th century by Francesco Sforza, Duke of Milan

, on the remnants of a 14th-century fortification.

Later renovated and enlarged, in the 16th n 17th centuries it was one of the largest citadels in Europe.

If it could be compared with old castle which is in the other’s cities, it’s quite well made castle cuz it was built since 15th century more…Look at it, eh?

Huge Medieval-Renaissance fortress with historical museums & art by Da Vinci and Michelangelo.

With nice this trevi, it could be better than this view ( my fault? )

I should walk along this street from the beginning point but it was fine with back of this park. Was also fine to me.

Way back on the piazza del Duomo

, I need to look out the other dope cathedral b4 visiting the main cathedral in this city…So I took a tip from my local friend ..

Then, finally, was easy to find out this cool cathedral which was middle point of my route.

‘Basilica di Santa Maria Presso San Satiro’

[20123 Milan, Metropolitan City of Milan]

Santa Maria presso San Satiro is a church in Milan.

The Italian Renaissance structure houses the early-medieval shrine to Satyrus, brother of Saint Ambrose.

The church is known for its false apse, an early example of trompe l’œil, attributed to Donato Bramante.

Elegant church dating from the 15th century, with regular services & an ornate gilded interior.

When she recommended this one by text, to be honest, I thought it could be just so so or less than cuz of time slept for a while…

But it was quite dope cathedral more than I expected…

Was so surprised with this scene of indoor cathedral

So I decided to travel this city where is located in Italy for every cathedral even if it’s small or big …it doesn’t matter how high or low..

Wherever tourists could be surprised with any cathedral in Italy who has not visited this Europe b4…like me.

Even if it’s located in shortcut or narrow way , there’s a quite elegant n dope church u can find out by chance or not…I’m sure about it…
