Things to do in Milan, no research required

Milan expects you to keep up and doesn’t explain itself. The map slows it down by pointing at what’s worth the walk. Chiesa di San Maurizio al Monastero Maggiore is the fresco-covered church most people hurry past on the way to the Duomo di Milano, and on a busy day it’s the better of the two. Coffee Studio 7Gr handles the espresso, and Ristorante Spore covers dinner if you want something off the standard Milanese menu. Parks and museums are mapped well enough to build a few days that go somewhere other than Via Montenapoleone.
