We have only been inside a few of the churches here in Milan. The Duomo being the biggest, most prominent, and grandiose of them all. A true staple in Milanese history and geography, the whole city encompasses it. It is impressive in it's immense size and ornate detail that covers every inch internally and externally. You also can experience it's wonderful views of the whole city, only if you can mange to walk up about 215 feet to the top. I'm hoping we will be able to see more of the smaller, more quaint churches around the city. However they all seem to be closed most of the time. I know what your thinking; why don't you go to one on Sunday morning when there open? Well... I will, hopefully... someday.
