Getting out of the intercity train, I headed right to the metro station and got the 1 day pass and headed to Milan Duomo. It’s the largest church in Italy (considering St.Peter’s Basilica is in Vatican Nation!). It was about 4pm by the time I reached Milan Cathedral. It was open till 7pm and so was the Archaeological Area and Terraces. However the Crypt was only till 5.30pm and Museum was only open till 6pm. However I did was to go to terrace first, so that I can enjoy the place before it gets too dark!
To Get There:
Nearest Metro Station: Duomo (red and yellow lines stop here)
Entry tickets begin at € 2.50.
However the Duomo Pass A, gives entry to Cathedral, Terrace by lift, Museum, Archaeological Area and San Gottardo Church. That is priced at € 15,00.
Duomo Pass B gives the same entry, but the access to Terrace is on foot and that’s priced at € 11,00
Can be bought online from their website
Here are some tips:
If you have a bad knee, you may not want to try climbing the terrace.
The security is really heavy, so be prepared to an airport styled security check to enter the Cathedral! My power bank was examined thoroughly before letting me in!!!
The best way to explore Milan is by taking the 1 day transport pass.
P.S: I was invited by Duomo di Milano to experience the Cathedral for review purpose, however the opinions are my own and this post does not to advertise the product/service.
