First things first, let's talk about culture. Milan has plenty of museums and cultural spots just waiting to be discovered. Check out the awesome Museo Leonardo for a journey through the mind of the master himself. Then, step into the world of opera at the Teatro alla Scala Museum and uncover the rich history of this iconic venue. For a dose of artistic brilliance, head to the Pinacoteca Ambrosiana and lose yourself in its impressive collection.

Now, let’s discover the foodie scene. Milanese cuisine is a gourmet's delight! In addition to creamy risotto with ossobuco and the typical crispy cotoletta you will find many other delicacies in cosy trattorias and charming osterias throughout the city. One of the world's best-loved Easter sweets is the Colomba, initially introduced by Milanese baker and entrepreneur Angelo Motta as an Easter variant of the Christmas panettone. If you are spending Easter in Milan, you must try it! You will find it in numerous shops and bakeries throughout the city. Another traditional treat is the Easter egg. We highly recommend strolling the streets of Milan to find your favourite - or rather, to taste as many as possible - as the city boasts a wide range of Easter chocolate eggs to satisfy every palate.

Feeling energized after all that feasting? Grab a bike and hit the streets!
