Last time I brought you to Kauai and New York, this time I decided to introduce you to my hometown. It is in Northern Italy, a few hours from France, Switzerland, and Austria. It is where the Italian stock exchange is located. It is one of the 4 fashion capitals of the world, did you guess it yet?

Yes, I am talking about Milan. In the last couple of years, this city changed a lot. It became a Metropolitan City, the metro line is growing and some museums are free. This year has been really good for Milan because it is hosting the World Exposition 2015 and the MTV EMAs will take place here on October 25th. Pretty cool, isn't it?

But what are the most visited sites in Milan?

1. The Duomo, of course. It is a gothic cathedral which was started in 1386. If you pay 8 euros you can go up the stairs and reach the roof. If you take the elevator you pay 13 euros (it is not worth it, the line is much longer). If you want to enter the cathedral and its museum you have to pay 2 euros (click here for more information).

2. The Sforza Castle. I love it, honestly. There are a few museums there, but the castle is also the gate for a really big park, called "Parco Sempione". At the other end of the park there is the Arch of peace. It is full of Bars and in the night it comes to life, especially on Saturdays.

3. Navigli and Darsena. Navigli is the canal, sometimes when people see a pic of it, they think it is Venice but no, Milan has a canal as well. Darsena is brand new, and before being the way it is now I remember it being a huge construction site.

4. Brera. This is a really good area of Milan, some think that it could be a city itself, in any way, because you don't really need the car to get around, you cannot drive through some streets, but you can take the metro to go elsewhere in the city. It is full of little artistic alleys, restaurants, and shops. It is good to walk around here, either during the day or during the night.

5. Lombardy Building. This isn't really a monument, but on Sundays, you get to observe Milan from the top of it, for free! There are also other ways to get a cool view of Milan's skyline: Duomo Cathedral, Passerelle Galleria Vittorio Emanuele, Torre Branca, Terrazze Triennale, Terrazze Rinascente, Torre Unicredit.
