To most Italians, Milan is the unofficial capital of Italy and arguably the most interesting city in the country, where old and new meet in an ever-changing relationship. For all the places I list, I give you the URL of the website where you find more detailed information. Google gives you in the most relevant positions the websites of the companies spending more on advertising with them, not necessarily the ones that have the correct information. If you search for the opening hours of a certain basilica, for example, you could get something saying that they highly recommend a reservation, while entrance to the basilica is, in fact, always FREE. It’s the website of a tour operator that invests in Google advertising to gain visibility. I give you unbiased, ad-free, accurate information. Milan is Italy’s powerhouse, where the money is made. Money brings people, people create vibe and energy: Milan is the place where "things happen". Milan is internationally famous for its fashion and design, of course.
