Working at CERN (VI): Trip to Milan
It was not at all correct when in the last post I stated the longest trip we made by train was the one to Saint Gallen. The longest one was in fact to Milan. The Cisalpino took us in 4 and a half hours from the Cornavin station to Milan, where Leonardo da Vinci was to greet us:
Near the Leonardo da Vinci statue there is one of the most famous opera houses: La Scala
And also from the da Vinci statue and the Teatro della Scala we can get to the entrance of the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele, which leads to the Piazza del Duomo, where Il Duomo, Milan's cathedral is located.
The glass-covered street is still the home to several haute couture shops, restaurants and bars, and following the gallery, we arrive to Il Duomo (the entrance of the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele is the arch in the center of the photo, and the cathedral is at the right):
With some nice paintings at the inside:
