When in Milan.... Do's and Don't's
Do's
|
Don't's |
-
Take a trip to the nearby shopping precicnt in the Galleria
del Corso.
-
Drink the water from the numerous fountains - it is
completely clean natural mineral water that comes from
a underground source and is consequently ice cold
-
Tip the waiters approximately 10% of the bill as service
is generally not included
-
Take a trip up to one of the lakes - lake Como or lake
Maggiore are the most scenic
-
In December go to Navigli and savour the festive atmosphere.
Magical lights and torches decorate the ancient canals
of Milan
-
Go to San Siro to see the home of two of Italy's most
celebrated clubs AC Milan and Inter
-
Visit Leonardo Da Vincis Last Supper in the Church of
Santa Maria delle Grazie
-
If visiting the Duomo be sure to wear long trousers
and a shirt or blouse which covers your shoulders -
otherwise entry will be refused
- Stamp
your metro or bus ticket - failure to do so will result
in a minimum 50 Euro fine
|
-
Wear shorts or a t -shirt if you want to go and see
the Duomo
- Ask
why the Duomo was built so close to Metro
-
If you get lost do not blame it on a lack of a grid
like street system
- Order
cappuccino after your evening meal - remember cappuccino
in the morning and Espresso after lunch and dinner
-
Tell people off for smoking, in Italy a very high percentage
of the population smokes therefore people are very tolerant
-
Eat spaghetti with a spoon - if you think you will make
a mess just wear a bib by tucking your napkin into your
shirt as thats allowed
-
Tip taxi drivers, although not as bad as their Roman
counterparts Milanese taxi drivers have still be known
to rip tourists off - be careful
-
Fill your wine glass to the top as this is a sign of
poverty - it shows that you don't know where the next
glass is coming from.
-
Don't talk about the Mafia
- Don't
openly support the North's claim to seperatism and devolution.
This is a very sensitive issue as many people in Milan
still want to remain part of the republic
