We spent one day and night in Milan in September of 2011 during our two week trip to Italy.
Sightseeing:
Milan Cathedral (Duomo):
This Gothic church, commissioned in 1386, is the fourth largest in the world and took nearly six centuries to complete. The entire cathedral was built from pink marble which now shines beautifully after a recent cleaning. Although both the exterior and interior of the church are impressive, the building is most famous for its amazing rooftop where visitors are able to climb the stairs and enjoy the amazing arches and spires. If you are short on time and are debating on touring the interior of the church or climbing to the rooftop, skip the interior and head straight up to the roof. You won't be disappointed!
