Milan 2021

 

Milan is one of our favorite cities, so we went back to see some places we missed and eat at our favorite restaurants there. We managed to get tickets to see the Last Supper by Leonardo da Vinci at the Convent of Santa Maria delle Grazie.

Classic

The Church interior is also worth a look.

We also climbed to the top of the Duomo.

The views of the city can't be beat.

The Duomo Museum has a great collection, including a 16th century humming-bird mitre from Mexico.

We also went to see the Iron Crown of Lombardy in Monza Cathedral. It is housed in the impressive Theodelinda Chapel inside. The treasury also holds the Lombard hen with seven chicks gold statue and the Diptych of Stilicho. They don't let you take photos so you will have to look them up yourselves.
