Rounding out the 12 top places to visit in Milan, Parco Sempione is the city's most beloved urban park. Stretching behind Castello Sforzesco, the park is the perfect antidote to Milan's relentless pace. Within the park, look out for the Torre Branca - a slender 108m steel observation tower designed by Gio Ponti (1933, EUR 6 to climb) - and the Arco della Pace (Piazzale Sempione), a triumphal arch at the park's western entrance framing a spectacular view back toward the city.
Pro Tip: Climb Torre Branca at sunset for a view that rivals the Duomo rooftop at a fraction of the price and with no queue. The park's cafe near the lake is a locals' favourite for afternoon coffee.
