    Climb to the top (don't take the elevator) and take tons of pictures! Gorgeous gothic cathedral from the 1300s with statues and gothic architecture.

    See the famous Duomo of Milan, a huge cathedral, a unique building, a fusion of different architectural styles of the old times as it was started in 1386 and finished in 1965. You won't stop staring!

    The view is great, but to avoid the queue to buy your ticket, ask your hotel desk, maybe they have some to sell.

    MARVELOUS! Book your tickets in advance and skip the line. Also don't bring large bags, since security is high.

    A Cathedral as enormous as Milan's is bound to have a few mysteries hidden away somewhere. One of them can be found in the left-hand transept: a giant candlestick, known as the Candelabro Trivulzio... Read more

    Camera wrist bands cost 2 € each person for taking pictures inside the Duomo Milano. It's worth it!

    5th largest church in the world that took 500 years to complete building. A must-visit attraction in Milan other than shopping.

    The Duomo is the most beautiful monument of the city. You have to go on the roof top to see the city from the terraces.

    If you are in Milano you must go at least one time on the Duomo's Roof. In the noisy downtown, surrounded by a gothic atmosphere, you can feel an unbelievable and impressive calm, and silence too.

    Be sure to come with a lot of clothes. It seems to have some sort of dress code to enter the church.

    It is the largest church in Italy and the third largest in the world. The cathedral took nearly six centuries to complete.

    Make sure you get in the right queue to go up the top - there are separate queues for buying tickets, going up by lift and going up by stairs

    There is a typical Lombard saying “a uf” which means “free of charge”. It refers to the fact that transporters of the marble blocks were exempt from payment of duties. http://tinyurl.com/bmxstwn

    There is a sign saying that you need to buy a bracelet to photograph inside but if the stand is unattended, you can ignore the restriction.

    Look to La Madonnina (Virgin Mary's statue) atop Duomo. A smaller replica of the Madonnina was placed atop the Pirelli building - this Madonnina from the late 1950s remains the tallest point in Milan. Read more

    Don't forget to visit the rooftop for a close view on the statues and a panoramic view. Take the elevator at the far end of the cathedral. Read more

    Worth paying for the "skip the line ticket" which meets 2:45pm most days. 1.5 hour tour with amazing rooftop views

    Tip to the disabled people at the ticket office: you can check "disabled" in the choices for tickets. You go first.

    Beware of pick pockets, and people who tie bracelets onto you/bird food givers. They expect money and will hound you!
