11 days in Milan Itinerary

In many ways the most modern of Italian cities, Milan is a busy, elegant metropolis with an impressive list of grand palaces, fine churches, and important museums.

Venture out of the city with trips to Turin (Museo Egizio & Museo Nazionale del Cinema), La Citta Alta (in Bergamo) and Verona (Torre dei Lamberti, Piazza delle Erbe, & more). Pack the 28th (Sat) with family-friendly diversions at Gardaland Park. There's still lots to do: contemplate in the serene atmosphere at Duomo di Milano, admire the striking features of Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II, stroll the grounds of Monumental Cemetery, and contemplate the long history of Chiesa di San Maurizio al Monastero Maggiore.
