Take a trip to the Sforza Castle, one of Milan’s most popular and prized monuments, located in the center of Milan. It offers a range of activities that will keep you entertained all day including museums, art galleries and concerts in the evening. Inside several courtyards you will find a new bar and plenty of space to eat and drink while taking in the beauty of the castle and giving children rook to run around and play. While you are loafing around try to imagine how could have been your life as a guest of the duke and the duchesse, and perhaps meet Leonardo working there … Sforza was originally designed as a defensive castle in the 14th century, until Francesco Sforza, the duke of Milan at the time, transformed it into a spectacular palace in which he and his family lived in the 15th century. At the same time, Leonardo da Vinci actually lived and worked in the castle taking care of the cultural arts within the mansion along with creating blueprints for different weaponry such as a “RapidFire Crossbow”. This bow was an entirely new invention in his time that could have changed battlefield strategy and the course of history had it ever been made before. The perfectly functioning replica of it, has been recently created by Leonardo3 and showcased at the castle, based on folios 143, 153, and 155 from the Codex Atlanticus. It fires with great precision and accuracy and also has a rapid-load mechanism, which modern crossbows don’t even have. Entering from the Tower of Filarete in Piazza Cairoli, you will be lead to the vast Courtyard of Arms. There you will also find an older building that was added during Spanish rule and used as a hospital. The interior is adorned with garlands and cartouches that you can still see today. Inside the Spanish Hospital, is Michelangelo Buonarroti’s last sculpture, the Pietà Rondanini, which was left unfinished. Read more in our May article http://www.hellomilano.it/hm/enduring-legacy/. On the ground floor of the northeast tower, you can find the Sala delle Asse. This is the room that da Vinci was instructed to decorate in 1498. After five centuries, you can still see his painting of plants and fruits intertwining on the ceiling. Read more in our November 2013 article http://www.hellomilano.it/hm/cleaning-upleonardos-fancy-room/. It is part of the Museum of Ancient Art (Room XIII), which is located in the rooms of the ducal apartments, the home of Galeazzo Maria Sforza and Bona di Savoia in 1468. Each room has its own decorations by various artists. In the four centuries following, the Castle was used as a military complex until architect, Luca Beltrami, extensively remodeled it in the 19th century into the headquarters for Milan’s Civic Museums that it is today. Since the restoration of the castle, there have been nine museums installed inside the walls. In those you can find eloquently decorated furnishings along with a mix of ancient and modern art, including work by Michelangelo and Leonardo da Vinci. Even more art is held in the Sforza Castle Pinacoteca. This art gallery displays more than 230 pieces of art from numerous artists including, the Trivulzio Madonna by Andrea Mantegna. The first part of the museum holds religious paintings from the 15th and 16th centuries, while the second part holds art from the 16th, 17th and 18th centuries. These are just a few of the museums available. If you’re looking for something a little out of the ordinary, you can attend many live music concerts. You can find the dates and prices for these performances in the What’s On section. If you’re looking to get out of the museums for a while, from the second door towards Piazza del Cannone, the Sempione Park, located directly north of the castle through, offers numerous activities for visitors. It was created in the late 19th century to imitate a romantic garden with light man-made hills, rivers, groups of trees and paths wide enough for a carriage. Today the enormous park offers multiple cultural activities such as the famous Triennale Design Museum with a particular Giorgio De Chirico fountain in its garden, Theaters, various monuments and libraries. There are also other attractions including trails to walk around on, playgrounds for children, outdoor concerts during the summer and more. It’s a great place to take a relaxing walk outside and escape the bustling city. The castle can easily be accessed from the Cairoli Castello stop on the M1. It is open Monday-Sunday from 7:00-22:00 admission free and until 22:30 on Thursdays. The museums are open Tuesday-Sunday, from 9:00-19:30 and until 22:30 on Thursdays.

Post information, tel. 803160, Mon-Sat, 8.00-20.00, www. poste.it. • Public transport In Milan, buses, trams and metro (underground) trains are run by a company named ATM. Ordinary tickets cost €1.50 and can be obtained in Metro stations (newsagents, automatic machines, ticket offices in some stations), and from bars displaying the green and orange ATM sticker on the window. Weekly, monthly or yearly season tickets are available. The largest ATM ticket sales and info offices are the ATM Point information offices in Duomo, Cadorna, Centrale, Loreto and Romolo Metro stations, open Mon-Sat 7.45-19.00. The ordinary ticket should be franked using the machine as soon as you get on a bus or tram, or go through the Metro turnstiles, or before getting on an FNM train. The same ticket can be used for 90 minutes from the time franked on the ticket, with any combination of buses and trams (the magnetic ticket should be franked on every journey), but with just the one Metro journey, or one journey on a Passante Ferroviario train, or on a FNM train (within city limits). The one-day ticket (abbonamento giornaliero, €4.50) and the two-day ticket (abbonamento bigiornaliero, €8.25) last 24/48 hours respectively from the first franking: frank the magnetic ticket on every journey. The Metro system consists of 4 lines, number 1 (red), 2 (green), 3 (yellow), and the “Passante Ferroviario” (S trains). The FNM is the privately-run train service running from Stazione Nord in Piazza Cadorna. For info on FNM trains, there is an info office in the Cadorna station, open 7.00 to 20.00 every day. www.lenord.it Metro trains run from around 6.15 until 00.30, except on Saturday nights when trains run till about 02.00. During the night there is a replacement bus service for parts of lines 1 and 3. There are large interchange car parks at the stations Lampugnano, Bisceglie (MM1), Cascina Gobba, Famagosta (MM2), open 7.0001.00 (overnight parking possible). To get to the Rho Fiera trade fair district during fairs you can buy a return ticket at €5 (Andata/ritorno Rho Fiera) or a day ticket (Giornaliero fiera) €7. The normal one or two day ticket is not valid for getting to Rho Fiera. For public transport info, toll-free info at 800.808181 (7.30-19.30), www. atm-mi.it. The “Radiobus” service, operating from 20.00 to 02.00, is like a collective taxi service. A very comfortable air-conditioned minicoach picks you up and takes you where you want to go. You have to book by phone Don’t miss Apulia’s treasures Apulia “trulli” Apulia food Apulia sea Apulia vacations www.mtvpuglia.it at 02.4803.4803, preferably well in advance – say a few hours – or even just before your trip, but in this case you run the risk of not getting a place as well as spending ages listening to a recorded message. Cost €4 if you pay on the bus, less if you buy the ticket (ordinary ATM ticket + Radiobus ticket, total €3.50) in advance. This service may seem complicated, but it is so convenient and comfortable that it’s well worth the effort. • Railways Most trains leave from the Stazione Centrale. Train information can be obtained from the information office at the station, or by phone, 892021, or best of all by Internet (www. trenitalia.com). Remember that any train ticket should be franked using the yellow machines situated at the near end of the platforms, just before boarding the train. A return ticket should be franked again before the return journey. If you forget, you will be fined! If you do forget, find the conductor on the train as soon as possible, and the fine will be reduced. For many trains, seat booking is obligatory. In any case it is a good idea to buy your ticket early (at least the day before) and book your seat (small extra charge). Saves frustration queuing while your train is about to depart. Be sure to claim your booked seat within ten minutes after departure. For the differently abled and people with sight problems, there is a phone number for the whole of Italy: 199.30.30.60, operating every day, 7.00-21.00. Ferrovie Nord trains leave from Cadorna and run to various locations north of Milan, including the lakes and Malpensa airport. See www.lenord.it • Safety and security In Milan, like most large cities, there is a problem of small time theft. Take care of personal possessions at all times! Don’t leave your bags unattended even for a moment, particularly in crowded locations like Piazza Duomo and Galleria Vittorio Emanuele. Also take care in and around the Central Station, and when on trams and metro during the rush hour. If, at the station or airport, someone approaches you and offers you a taxi, this is not the normal taxi and it will cost much more. This is happening particularly at Linate airport, the taxi turns out to be a chauffeur-driven car with a bill to match. Beware of buying fake merchandise on the street, it will be low quality and it’s also against the law. People selling roses in restaurants have nothing to do with the restaurant, just say no (unless you want one, of course!). If you give money to the many beggars in the city and on the Metro trains you are financing organized crime. • Taxis It is almost impossible to stop a taxi on the street in Milan: you have to locate one of the taxi-ranks (see map pages), or call one of the radio taxi firms (02.4040, 02.8585, 02.4000, 02.6969). A few taxis accept credit cards. If in doubt about price, ask the driver for an estimate before setting off. On-line estimates at www.milanotaxi.it • Telephones The 02 dialling code for Milan is incorporated into phone numbers. If you are calling Italy from abroad, you have to include the “0” of this prefix, ie +39.02. (number). Numbers starting 339, 347, 348 etc. are for mobile phones, these calls cost more. Numbers starting with 0 are for fixed phones, 1 for public utilities (police etc.), 3 for mobiles, 8 for toll-free numbers. • Ticket info: Teatro alla Scala The ticket office is in Duomo metro station. It is open every day 12.00-18.00 (closed public holidays and August). Payment in Euro cash or by credit card.

Transport: to get to the stadium before the match, MM1 Lotto then free shuttle bus, or tram 16 from MM1 De Angeli. Seats are numbered, and so in theory you can get there any time: however it’s best to get to the stadium a bit early just to savour the pre-match entertainment. After the game, there are no shuttle buses, and so you can either walk to MM1 Lotto (15-20 minutes) or to Piazzale Axum to take tram 16 back to MM1 De Angeli or into the centre (M1 Duomo). • Toilets There are public toilets (not free) in some Metro stations, at railway stations, and in various municipal museums. • Tourist offices • IAT, Galleria Vittorio Emanuele, corner Piazza Scala • M1/3 Duomo.
