We arrived in Milan for the weekend of Catholic Easter. The city, which in the photographs is always full of people, turned out to be empty for the whole weekend. Only in Piazza Del Duomo, the central square of Milan, one could meet a small number of tourists and, of course, a huge number of pigeons.
The area is huge - 17 thousand square meters. m. This is a venue for cultural and sporting events, concerts, rallies and just a place of relaxation for the citizens and guests of Milan. In the center of the square there is an equestrian monument to the first king of united Italy, Vittorio Emmanuele II.
The design of the Cathedral Square was made by the architect Giuseppe Mengoni. The construction of the square lasted 12 years. A tragic event is connected with its history - its creator died on it, falling from scaffolding while supervising the facility.
You can climb to the top of the Gothic Duomo, where there are 2 observation decks, from there a beautiful view of the Square and great photos.
Nearby, in addition to the majestic Cathedral, there is the no less interesting Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II with glass vaulted arcades and the Palazzo dei Portici.
I think, having been in Milan, it is impossible to miss visiting this place, because this is the center of Milan.
