We had an absolutely fabulous day at the Gardaland! You feel like in a fairytale, and all the roller coasters are very exciting! 😍 I recommend going on a (rainy) weekday, so the queues are shorter and you manage to see everything. Feel free to skip the Jumanji Adventure ride though, it’s not quite worth a 40+ minute wait.

Another amazing amusememt park for kids and older as well. Rides get pretty busy with the nice weather, like in every resort. I wish there was a better overview what each ride offers - we waited 90 minutes for Jumanji adventure, which was absolutely no advanture plus it was all in Italian. Other than that, only 4 rides required height over 140, few over 130. Make sure to check these requirements before going. Also, buying tickets outside od the official venue office is cheaper so look for those selling points in the city.

We visited Gardaland on a Wednesday and had an amazing time! 🎢 The waiting time for each ride was less than 15 minutes, which made the whole experience super smooth. The official app showing live queue times was very helpful — it helped us plan our route efficiently and enjoy more rides. The park is clean, beautifully themed, and well-maintained. Staff were friendly and organized, and there were plenty of food options and rest areas. Both the kids and adults had a blast — from the thrilling roller coasters to the fun family attractions. Highly recommend visiting on a weekday if possible — short queues, great atmosphere, and so much fun! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Fantastic for kiddies as there is a great balance of calmer rides with ease of motion while still holding very good production value. The adult rides too are equally fantastic. I hold the overall experience below Europa park however and wouldn't go too far out of my way to visit it.

So much fun, there's something for everyone. We also went during weekday in October, there was minimal queue and wait time even on popular rides. Absolutely recommended visiting if you have kids and are in the area.

We had such a fantastic time at Gardaland! The park is full of magic, excitement, and plenty of things to do for both kids and adults.There are so many attractions from thrilling rides to fun games that kept us entertained all day. The decorations and themed areas are beautiful and immersive, making it feel like stepping into another world.The staff were friendly and helpful, and everything was well-organized despite the crowds. It’s also worth mentioning that the park is very clean and well-maintained, and there are plenty of places to relax, grab food, or cool down.If you’re visiting Italy with kids, Gardaland is absolutely worth it. We left with big smiles and a new fluffy friend. we recommend

I am sure that a family would love this place...my wife and stayed at the Gardaland hotel, and rode the bus to the park in the morning (bus runs every 16 minutes) We love roller coasters and these did not disappoint. The atmosphere is very family friendly and the park is very well cared for (it's clean!) over all a great experience.

Parco Giardino Sigurtà is a breathtaking botanical paradise nestled near Lake Garda in Valeggio sul Mincio. A Garden Wonderland Spanning over 60 hectares, this meticulously maintained park offers a vibrant display of nature's beauty, making it one of Italy’s most stunning garden destinations. With highlights like the famous Avenue of Roses, stretching over a kilometer with 30,000 blooming roses, and the enchanting Tulipanomania, a springtime spectacle featuring over a million tulips in bloom. The Labyrinth, scenic water gardens, ancient trees, and serene lily-covered ponds add to the park’s magical charm. Whether you explore by foot, bicycle, or golf cart, Sigurtà invites calm and wonder at every turn. It’s perfect for families, photographers, or anyone seeking peace in a lush, floral setting. A visit here feels like stepping into a living painting — peaceful, colorful, picturesque, and unforgettable.

A beautiful botanical park not far from the southern part of Lake Garda. We visited in early June 2025. The park is lush with greenery, butterflies, and birds. It’s highly recommended to take the small train tour that runs through the park. The ride lasts about 35 minutes and circles the entire park, giving you a sense of its size and helping you decide which areas you'd like to explore on foot. Some of the highlights include a Japanese garden, a plant maze, an herb and butterfly garden, an educational farm, and more. We spent about three wonderful hours there — you could easily spend even more. Be sure to bring a bottle of water, as it can get quite hot during the day, even in June. Convenient parking is available about 250 meters north of the park entrance, in the supermarket parking lot.

Beautiful park and great family outing We went on a family trip to Parco Giardino Sigurtà and had a lovely day. We enjoyed a picnic in the gardens and drove around in a small golf cart, which the kids absolutely loved. The park is stunning and very well maintained – perfect for a relaxing day in nature. It is a bit on the expensive side though; we paid around 720 DKK for one golf cart for 2.5 hours. Highly recommended!

Amazing botanical garden, an absolute must see if you are in the area. Good paths to walk on, however, since the park is so big, there's also an option to rent a bike or golfkart. We rented a gokfkart, which is very convenient with small children.

Huge gardens with ponds, maze, castels, and other scenic beauties... Can spend days over there. Electric bikes and golf carts are available to rent.

The park itself is beautiful, but €46 for 2 adults and 2 kids is way too much considering the experience. Many attractions were closed, the park felt empty, and there wasn't much to do. It's a nice place to walk around, but with so little open, it should cost no more than €5 per person.

Beautiful place with amazing flowers. You can spend the entire day there. Bicycles are recommended, too bad they are not suitable for all ages.

If you can, book a local hotel to fully enjoy this place. If amazingly beautiful, but we were with our kids and this place requires a lot of walking, specially if the parking lots close to the old city entrance are full. We don’t regret anything, even parking far the visit was amazing. Just next time we will book a local hotel so we can stay more and walk less.

Incredible site to visit if you’re at all interested in history! The museums fairly small but contains a lot of interesting artifacts. The actual archeological site is well excavated and uncovered, so it is easy to move around and view the different buildings. Unfortunately the audio guide was not an option as I had to look after kids - so I cannot comment on it. On the topic of kids; be ready to carry them a lot, a lot of steep stairs and places to get hurt - but at the same time very kid friendly as they are free to explore. Would, and will, visit again!

Another attraction highly recommended if in Sirmione. Either walk or take an electronic train ride (from Terme) to the ticket station. The ruins are spread over a bugger space then I thought and there are lots of olive and fir trees and spectacular views. Peaceful and tranquil too. After the visit, you can walk down towards Jamaica beach as well.

The ruins are relatively interesting but what made this place special for us were the spectacular views of the lake. Alongside the ruins, it is worth visiting here just for the stunning views.

If you'll walk through this magnifiyplacs and think that people who build it and some who lived there didn't even heard about Jesus walking on the earth. Scale od PRIVATE villa build 2000years ago is unbeliy. Evidebyof some great work, architecture and art. Also the location and the view is thrilling.

It is a very beautiful place. History is there. It is located just near the lake and gives inspiration to people. Everyone who visits Sirmione must see this place too.

Crazy castle! Amazing views ! One of a kind ! If you get the boat to drive around the lake will be something else ! To get in the castle 8euro per person it was fast .

We visited the magnificent Scaligero Castle in Sirmione 🏰, a truly unforgettable experience! Walking along the walls and admiring Lake Garda 🏞️ was something unique. . The towers and ramparts offer breathtaking views, a real spectacle! I highly recommend a visit to this gem, a wonder not to be missed! The entrance ticket costs €8 / person #CastelloScaligero #Sirmione #LakeGarda #Italy 🇮🇹❤️💯👌 25.09.2025

The Scaligero Castle is magnificent! Walking over the drawbridge and exploring the grounds felt like stepping back in time. Highly recommend it for its history and beautiful photo opportunities.

This castle is unique because of the moat. You can take a boat tour around it too. View is beautiful and on weekends you can pay extra to go into the moat(dock) area, see photo for timings.

We went there at around 6pm and it was really quiet. The sunset was stunning and city view was beautiful under the sunset. Worth the hiking from city centre. Nice castle!

When we stood on top of the castle, we looked around in awe! What a perfect strategic location it was, together with the romantic scenery of the lake and mountains. Later, we found out online that it was built in the 13th century by the Scaligeri family of Verona. It was not only a fortress for defense but also served as a military harbor on Lake Garda. Walking inside, you can truly feel the power of its massive stone walls and sense the military strength of those who once ruled here. It is absolutely worth climbing up close to sunset.

A very beautiful and well-maintained castle surrounded by a majestic fortress wall. You can choose between a variety of gelaterias, or take a motorboat ride around the peninsula. The only downside is if it rains heavily and there is nowhere to take shelter.

Beautiful Castle and beautiful surrounding views. I wouldn't recommend visiting on the weekend as we went on a Saturday and it was absolutely packed in the morning so we went back in the afternoon which was much better. The stairs are quite narrow so it's difficult for people to walk past each other which creates a bottleneck in many points going up/down the castle. Otherwise it's a beautiful place and one can take great pictures here. We even saw a proposal which was super sweet 😊

Must see on the day of Ferragosto (August 15th) 100+ Madonnari transform the piazza into a beautiful mosaic of art representing Our Verging Mary...

I found the sanctuary itself interesting, specially inside (will not ruin you the experience) and the garden behind is a very charming and relaxing soace where you can eat, just lay or take a boat tour along the lake. I really loved the Fiera delle Grazie (between August 14th-18th aprox) because of the environment and the madonnarie. Is was easy to arrived by bus but also possible by bike.

10/10 gorgeous church and gorgeous mummified crocodile.

Beautiful

Very exotic place. Do yourself a favour and visit it.

Superb

SUPER

An amazing place with so much history that is in perfect condition. Definately worth traveling for. But the staff was very stern and at times rude.

A place worth-pausing

Is a beautiful place

Interesting theatre, with scenery of the period.

Vicenzo Scamozzi’s pioneering theatre design in Sabbioneta

Amazing teatro with Frescoes

Beautiful performance!

I loved it that it was so quiet on the day we visited so I was able to have a good look at the courtyard and took nice selfies 😻😸

Great experience to get to see this. My colleague was taking me around after dinner to pass some time- from the US and we have nothing of this historical value. The incorporation of the town around it now being restaurants and such is nice- I'm sure during the day is even more lively and beautiful!

Fantastic historic castle (moat and all!) that still contains all the original furniture and fixtures, including weaponry and armors. Ideally, visit when the weather is cooler because the interior can get pretty hot in July (which is when we visited). I HIGHLY RECOMMEND the guided tour: the docent made the castle's history come alive with plenty of historical info and many anecdotes about the castle inhabitants over the centuries...quite amazing, including the vicious plot against the Sanseverina noblewoman(don't want to spoil it here, but she is an important character in Stendhal's novel "The Charterhouse of Parma"). He is probably the most knowledgeable and entertaining tour guide I have ever met. Last but not least, this castle hides a pictorial gem by the great Parmigianino, created at the Age of 19 before he was catapulted to fame. Do not miss!

We visited this castle on a Saturday in November, so it was closed and we couldn't go inside. But the square around the castle is lovely and there are cute trattorias where you can have a coffee or a spritz.

Amazing castle view with a lake around that has live fish in it. Truly beautiful I highly recommend. Although under repairs.

Great tour, the guide was very passionale and kept things interesting with jokes. Remember to check the time slots for the tour as they may change.

Beautifully preserved and definitely worth the minor detour on route to Parma.

An incredible and unique place – a true cinematic experience The Labirinto is unlike anything I’ve seen before. It’s an extraordinary place that evokes new sensations and emotions from the moment you enter. The entire setting feels otherworldly – refined, almost dreamlike – and is enriched by a remarkable art collection featuring rare and carefully selected pieces. Temporary exhibitions are just as thoughtful and well-curated, perfectly reflecting the vision and legacy of the founder, the iconic publisher behind it all. The experience is complete with a charming café and boutique area, offering a moment of pleasant relaxation in the midst of such inspiration. Absolutely worth the visit.

Place is a very nice stop if you are on looking for a break from your roadtrip further down south. Really enjoyed it, great for kids as well.

If the artwork in these photos makes you laugh or disgusted (as some visitors felt compelled to let me know), don't waste your time, don't come here. If you think they're amazing, that's the place for you!

Labirinto della Masone near Parma is a must-visit, despite limited transportation—opt for a taxi or rental car for the 20-minute trip from the city center. The world’s largest bamboo maze, designed by Franco Maria Ricci, is uniquely captivating, blending nature and intrigue for a serene, unforgettable adventure. You won’t find its equal anywhere else. The adjacent art museum is equally impressive, showcasing Ricci’s eclectic collection of over 500 works, from surreal portraits to abstract oddities. While some pieces feel bizarre without clear meaning, they spark curiosity and dialogue. The sleek galleries enhance the experience.

We were around the area and wanted to checkout the maze. The maze is nice, completely green and a nice walk around find the way out. The museum was a pleasant surprise. I loved the art mainly the costumes were amazing. Overall a great couple of hours. They also have a nice bar and a restaurant just to dine if you want.

Attended an amazing music festival in the premises. It's also a great place to unwind whilst walking through the bamboo forest labyrinth. 10/10 Recommend.

Great experience with the Lost in Music Festival at the Labyrinth. We walked the labyrinth and listened to music and ate. There were lots of people wondering around the venue. The labyrinth was fun.

It is a smalk nice castle but was closed when we arrived. It seels you can only visit it at fixed hours with guide

Mmmm

Ok

Beautiful and suggestive

(Translated by Google) We organized a guided tour while the children were busy hunting for Easter eggs inside the castle, another wonderful initiative that was very well organized and fun. The structure of the building is very beautiful, well maintained, with also a beautiful view of the Val Ceno from the top floor. A little bare inside of furnishings and objects of the time, but it is absolutely rewarded by the fantastic guide who with his tales and stories makes you imagine everything and transports you back to medieval times. Definitely recommended for the tour of the castles of Parma. (Original) Abbiamo organizzato una visita guidata nel mentre i bambini erano impegnati alla caccia alle uova pasquali all’interno del castello, altra bellissima iniziativa organizzata molto bene e divertente. La struttura dell’edificio molto bella, ben tenuta, con anche una vista dall’ultimo piano bellissima sulla Val Ceno. Un po’ spoglio internamente di arredi, di oggetti del tempo, ma viene assolutamente ricompensato dalla fantastica guida che con i suoi racconti e storie fa immaginare tutto e trasporta nel tempo medievale. Consigliato sicuramente per il giro dei castelli del Parmense.

(Translated by Google) Beautiful afternoon experience with a guide in period clothing (THANKS MARCO!) for a trip inside an impregnable medieval defensive castle. Very kind and well-prepared guide entertaining the visit with stories and anecdotes that were never boring and with interesting points for comparison. Large and well-kept castle with few furnishings or internal frescoes being a defensive structure but full of practical solutions to be impregnable. €6 to enter (better to call to book a visit) and I point out free parking (no blue lines or parking disc) in front of the castle entrance also for motorcycles. Highly recommended and a real discovery on a par with the most famous castles in the area. (Original) Bellissima esperienza pomeridiana con guida in abiti d'epoca (GRAZIE MARCO!) per un viaggio dentro un castello difensivo medievale inespugnabile. Guida gentilissima e molto preparata intrattenendo la visita con storie e aneddoti mai noiosi e con spunti interessanti di confronto. Castello grande e ben tenuto con pochi arredi o affreschi interni essendo una struttura difensiva ma ricca di soluzioni pratiche per essere non espugnabile. 6€ per entrare (meglio telefonare per prenotare visita) e segnalo parcheggio gratis (no righe blu o disco orario) davanti all'ingresso del castello anche per le moto. Consigliatissimo e una vera scoperta al pari dei castelli più famosi in zona.

(Translated by Google) Visit carried out on Saturday afternoon on a splendid sunny afternoon. A good and engaging guide, the castle has much greater potential than it can show today. Obviously the costs to renovate and maintain a castle are very significant for the Municipality that manages it. For those passing through Varano it is certainly a highly recommended stop (Original) Visita effettuata sabato pomeriggio in uno splendido pomeriggio di sole. Guida brava e coinvolgente, il castello ha un potenziale ben più ampio di quello che oggi può mostrare. Ovviamente i costi per ristrutturare e manutenere un castello sono assai significativi per il Comune che lo ha in gestione. Per chi passa da Varano è senz'altro una tappa super suggerita

This area is worth a visit there are plenty of bars in the village one shop we found at the top of the hill there is a free art gallery. Churches of course and 2 museums , archaeological and the castle there is a joint ticket entry for 7 euros the climb up To the top of the castle tower provided a stunning view,the rest less interesting

Stunning hilltop castle nestled in a medieval Italian borgo. The entry fee is minimal and the photos you can take alone are worth the price. The history is also quite interesting. Worth the trip.

It was a great opportunity to visit what still stands of an old castle. Tons of stairs to get to the top. Not a real lot to see. But glad I did it. Not for anyone with issues with heights. I was lucky to do this when no one else was in the building. If you are pressed for time may be worth just checking out the town instead.

Came here to spend a few hours, to see the castle and the other sights and some walk. The whole small medieval town is a sight for itself. We parked down in the village and walk the hill up to the castle. Beautiful buildings and architecture all the way up. And on top of course the castle, the tower and many other sights. As well as a small park with some nice views. The town dates back to the 8th Century, but it believed to be even older. The castle itself (the "Borgo") was build in 1342, while the nearby church "Santa Maria Assunta" dates back to the 11th Century. Then there's the Palazzo del Podestà and the Bell tower and other notable buildings up there in the castle area. It was also the filming location of "Ladyhawke" starring Matthew Broderick, Rutger Hauer and Michelle Pfeiffer. We came here on a sunday, there were some visitors, but we expected a lot more, free parking available down in the village as well. A really wonderful old town worth visiting. We didn't expect much, since we really didn't know much about the place, but were really impressed by this beautiful town.

Full of bourgeoisie with expensive cars who live in the castle. But beautiful view from the castle and also museum of Italian history and culture.

Well worth a visit to this medieval castle, beautiful buildings and view

Quite and very authentic medieval town. With local food and super views. Here starts Apenino so many possibilities to trekking. Good place to try piacentino cuisine, specific for Emilia Romagnia

A highlight of Lodi!

The Tempio Civico della Beata Vergine Incoronata, also known as the Sanctuary of the Incoronata, is a Catholic church in Lodi, Lombardy, Italy, and a masterpiece of Lombard Renaissance art. Origins: The temple was built starting in 1488, following reported miracles in 1487, when a fresco of the Virgin Mary on a brothel’s facade in Via Incoronata (formerly Contrada Lomellini) allegedly wept during a fight. This prompted the citizens of Lodi to construct a civic temple dedicated to the Crowned Virgin. Civic Significance: The term "Civico" (municipal) reflects its ownership by the Lodi commune, not the diocese, as it was funded and promoted by citizens and local authorities, symbolizing civic pride and devotion. Construction: Designed by Giovanni Battagio, a pupil of Bramante, construction began on May 29, 1488. Gian Giacomo Dolcebuono took over in 1489, completing the dome by 1491, and Lorenzo Maggi finished the bell tower in 1503. The facade was completed in 1879 by Alfonsino Truzzi.

Best.

Built in 1488 by Dolcebuono who was a pupil of Bramante. Decorated by Amadeo. Well worth a visit.

Very beautiful place

(Translated by Google) A small sanctuary in Lodi located near the cathedral, construction began in 1488 and is one of the greatest masterpieces of the Lombard Renaissance. It has an octagonal plan and is richly decorated with frescoes and works of art. It belongs to the municipality because its creation stems from a citizen initiative. (Original) Piccolo santuario a Lodi situato vicino alla cattedrale, edificato a partire dal 1488, è uno dei maggiori capolavori del rinascimentale lombardo. È a pianta ottagonale ed è ricchissimo di decorazioni, affreschi e opere d'arte. È di appartenenza comunale perché la sua nascita deriva da un'iniziativa cittadina.

(Translated by Google) The church, built between 1488 and 1494 based on a design by Giovanni Battaggio, is one of Lombardy's most astonishing Renaissance jewels. It is called a civic temple because it was commissioned and financed by the Lodi community, in recognition of the strong popular devotion to the miraculous image housed there. The octagonal plan, a symbol of perfection and rebirth, houses a fully decorated interior, a true Baroque-Renaissance treasure trove overflowing with paintings, sculptures, frescoes, and stuccoes created by the greatest Lombard artists of the 16th and 17th centuries. The works are truly numerous: rather than listing them, the motto here applies: "not to describe, but to contemplate." (Original) La chiesa, edificata tra il 1488 e il 1494 su progetto di Giovanni Battaggio, è uno dei gioielli rinascimentali più sorprendenti della Lombardia. È detto tempio civico perché voluto e finanziato dalla comunità lodigiana, riconoscente per la forte devozione popolare legata all’immagine miracolosa che vi era custodita. La pianta ottagonale, simbolo di perfezione e rinascita, accoglie un interno interamente decorato, un vero scrigno barocco-rinascimentale traboccante di tele, sculture, affreschi e stucchi realizzati dai maggiori artisti lombardi tra Cinque e Seicento. Le opere sono davvero numerosissime: più che elencarle, qui vale il motto “non si descrive, si contempla”.

The place is not bad, but the management is sick…I even didn’t want a guide tour that I only come to relax and take a walk with my family…but actually they LOCKED us for around I hour and force us to follow a guide who bring us to see a lot of toilets but non of them you could use😅😅😅😅then she just can’t wait to finish her job and kick out all the visitors. Seemed very educated🤪 The town is very good, good views and great food, but I don’t recommend you to visit this Castello at all.

One of the greatest experiences I've ever had and the fact I stumbled upon it while walking was even better! I love this place so much, the nice staff and shops were the icing on the cake!

April 11th: maybe not yet the turistic season, the castle can only be visited on weekends, museums still closed at midday. Perhaps we should have organized the visit better but on the various sites we found a lot of advertising and somewhat confusing information. What's more, the tourist info employee wasn't "in the mood". 5€ for 45' parking ...pity; quite disappointed but ... we weren't the only ones today ...

With its 600 years history, a nice jump to the past. Property of Visconti's family, it is partially opened to the public. Rich furnitures and amazing rooms. Also the 12 hectares park around needs to spend some time for the visit. Visitable only with a guide.

Quaint Little Medieval village with one the Viscontis Castles built right in the center of it. Picturesque views all around that will easily capture you fantasy and make you shoot hundreds of photos. IMO though, there are too many gift shops and restaurants yet walking on those gravel little streets is very pleasant. Food on site is good although little more expensive than at a Trattoria nearby. A "must stop" location if you happen to drive near Piacenza or Cremona. Have fun!!

Atmospheric medieval village! You can visit it by free, but if you want visit the castle it can be only on holidays and on Saturday -Sunday, if the garden- twice a day, near 14.00. We used the bus from Piacenza every hour to visit this cool place, you can buy the ticket in Tabacheria, it costs 2.10 euro. Highly recommended!

Quite an interesting little place to visit. There were a good number of restaurants and little shops, we spent a few hours getting food and cafe at a place on the main square. The place itself isn't hugely authentic, particularly given the local region and the shops are really aimed squarely at the local tourist market (still not sure why there were so many Harry Potter related shops). The reconstructed buildings (done in the early 20th century) are interesting and worth a wander through. Plan to do a few hours if you are going to get a drink and browse the shops, a little more if you want to get lunch or dinner too.

Getting caught up on reviews/pics from out trip to Italy in May/June 2024. What an amazing castle! The owner/family still lives there, but has opened the castle for tours. The history of the castle goes back some 1500 years. It’s on a large hill overlooking the Trebbia River, in the province of Piacenza, Italy. Many of the rooms in the castle are “as is”… as they have been for centuries. So much history there, from prisoners to royal guests from all over Europe. It really is a very cool place to visit, good for families as well!

Would be a great trip but if you are not Italian, the tour guides are extremely inhospitable and rude. They do not try to hide their xenophobia. In certain rooms they refuse to speak anything but Italian, and they will not make eye contact with anyone who does not. We were dismissed quickly and the visit was not worth the money. I agree with other reviews, the staff make this a must-miss and unpleasant experience.

This could be a fantastic experience if only the (still living) descendants weren't so selfish and exclusive. For instance: you can't take photos inside the castle; wonder why? me too! Also, the rooms and most of the castle isn't true to its origin: it's rebuilt, not restored. Not recommended.

gorgeous ancient castle. had a lovely visit, a historian took us to see some of the rooms although the family still lives there. I particularly appreciated the 17th century games and toys and the armours hall.

The location is timeless and absolutely gorgeous! The food was really really good with a great service! Absolutely delighted by the fabulous lunch that we had!

Magnificent stronghold. Well maintained and with a simply great static display of uniforms and weapons. Competent guide illustrated all castle secrets

Nice place to visit. Unfortunately the castle was closed when we arrived here but we had a very good lunch in this area.

Wonderful weel kept Castle. From renovations. to 1800 renovations. Very interesting to see all the indise rooms, kitchen, cold storage, torture room. Eat downtown some very good restaurants.

Impressive medieval castle on a hilltop over a village. It's BIG and just after the holiday season it was almost deserted. We spent an hour or two roaming the ramparts, the many rooms (including a fascinating exhibition of 29th century socialist paintings) - and yes, the torture dungeon as well. We were pleasantly surprised to be left to roam the place on our own accord. The view of the valley from the ramparts is stunning.

Very interesting place with great views on the surroundings of Bardi. They definitely put a lot of interesting things to see inside those historic walls. When we were there a very interesting art exposition took place at the castle, worth to check out the rich programme throughout the year.

Historic and spectacular. Tutti devono andare. Fantastic views, intricate interiors, a treasure of exploration and history in it's passages, chambers, architecture atop a commanding promontory of jasper

We were told that the castle wasn't much to look at. Being our first castle, it was fantastic. The view is incredible. There is a torture chamber. You can almost feel the people being tortured. Great experience. I can't imagine what castles the person who told us this was just ok has visited. This one was well worth the trip.

Wonderful castle with a gorgeous view and multiple things to visit : local craftmanshi museum, hunting museum, princes house, dungeon… and everything is included in the entrance fee. The restauration of the castle is really good (you can visit almost everything) and well suited for little middle aged fans.

Really cool and big castle. I truly recommend you to visit it, have a dinner in the restaurant “Le Due Spade”, buy some meat near the castle in the small meat-shop in the street, which leads you to the castle. And as well i recommend you to meet the sunset. It’s amazing!

Walking around during the roof terraces on a sunny day was terrific. The outside of the Cathedral is more interesting than the inside, but that is still very impressive. The museum was a lit more interesting than I thought it was going to be We bought timed tickets (the timing is for the roof) before going. When I bought them, I thought they were expensive. After the visit, they seem good value as visiting all areas took the whole day.

El Duomo in Milan was one of the most breathtaking landmarks I’ve ever seen. The moment you walk into the square, the cathedral’s incredible gothic architecture completely captures your attention—every detail, every spire, every carving is stunning up close. The inside is just as impressive, with soaring ceilings, beautiful stained glass, and an atmosphere that feels both grand and peaceful. But the rooftop was my favorite part. Walking along the terraces and seeing the city from above while standing among the intricate marble spires is an unforgettable experience. Everything is well-organized, and the staff were helpful throughout the visit. Whether you’re into history, architecture, or just want a truly awe-inspiring moment, El Duomo is a must-see when in Milan.

Visited Duomo di Milano, and it was one of the most awe-inspiring sights of my entire trip. The gothic architecture is stunning from every angle — the spires, sculptures, and stained glass tell centuries of history and craftsmanship. Climbing up to the rooftop terrace offers breathtaking views across Milan, especially at sunset. Inside, the light filtering through the colored glass creates a quiet, sacred feeling. It’s not just a landmark — it’s a masterpiece of art, faith, and human effort. A must-visit for anyone coming to Milan.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Absolutely breathtaking! The Duomo is beyond beautiful — every detail is incredibly intricate and far more impressive than words can describe. If you plan to take the elevator to the rooftop for the view, I highly recommend booking tickets online in advance.

Lots of tourists arrive here every single day, and it’s easy to understand why. The architecture of this ancient cathedral is absolutely stunning every part of the exterior is covered with beautiful carvings and statues that reflect centuries of history and devotion. We also visited this place during our trip to Milan, and it was an unforgettable experience. The atmosphere around the cathedral is lively, with people taking photos, enjoying the view, and admiring the beauty of the structure from every angle. Inside, it feels peaceful and majestic at the same time. The stained glass windows are colorful and full of intricate details, and the tall pillars make you realize how grand this church really is. If you visit, I highly recommend going up to the rooftop. The view from the top is simply amazing you can see the whole city of Milan and appreciate the details of the spires up close. There might be a queue, but it’s definitely worth the wait. Overall, the Duomo di Milano is not just a church, but a masterpiece of art, history, and architecture. A must-visit place for anyone coming to Milan!

Breathtaking – Day and Night! I absolutely loved visiting the Duomo di Milano! It's one of the most stunning places I’ve ever seen. I was so impressed that I went back three days in a row – both during the day and at night – and each time it felt just as magical. The architecture is incredible, especially when it's lit up in the evening. Whether you're exploring inside, walking on the rooftop, or just enjoying the view from the square, this place is unforgettable. A must-see in Milan!

Genuinely one of the most stunning, astonishing places I've ever visited. Its genuinely so breathtaking, I'll never visit another place that makes you feel so amazed. I'd recommend getting tickets beforehand and remember to cover your shoulders and ladies, wear a long dress or they'll make you buy a bag to cover up.

What an exceptional experience. Once in a life time for me! as an Asian person, it was great to attend opera. Reminder to be aware of dress code as Italian dress really proper for opera!!! Good thing is there’s subtitle in English for the opera . Staff is helpful. Nice bar during the break too, good champagne.

A beautiful place, full of charm and history. The architecture, colors, and overall atmosphere are stunning, it truly feels like a grand theatre. The stage is massive, and the chandelier is absolutely gorgeous. The foyer is spacious and elegant, with mirrors that add to its classic feel. The museum is also worth exploring, filled with fascinating objects and paintings. Definitely a must-visit in Milan.

Went to see the ballet productions Études, Petite Mort, Boléro with the Ballet Company of the Teatro alla Scala and the Orchestra of the Academy of La Scala Theatre and it was epic. The orchestra and conductors were brilliant but the dancers were the stars especially the Boléro, she was amazing and the piece was spectacular. No idea how she spend 20+ mins like that but I'd watch it again any day. Only problem is for a 6 foot plus person the seats in the balcony are real tight, almost makes Ryan Air look a little comfy. Was fanatic to see so many kids at the ballet, smiling, laughing and enjoying it. We need more of this in Ireland

The museum is very interesting. The building is beautiful and there is a lot to see. It is really nice that you have the chance to look into the stage and watch a current rehearsal. The ticket is 12 euro and the visit is totally worth it. We visited on a Tuesday morning and there were very few visitors so it was quite.

Remember to book in good time in advance as the tickets sell out fast! This legend is one of the top opera houses in the world. The foyer space is quite small compared to the big number of seats and it gets really crowded in the intermission. The bar is cramped so go to line first for a separate ticket to get the drinks, only then to the service area so you get your purchase. We saw Verdi’s Rigoletto. The expectations were very high so we were a bit disappointed. The tenor had gotten sick and the replacing singer was not at the same level with other soloists that were stunning. We found the regie, set and clothing a bit outdated, even if the turning set worked well. The lighting was off and I guess with better lighting design the opera would have looked much better. Overall we were pleased with the evening.

Even just from the outside, La Scala is elegant and timeless. The neoclassical façade is beautifully preserved and radiates quiet grandeur. It’s one of those places where you instantly feel Milan’s connection to art and culture — worth a short stop even if you don’t go inside.

I give 4 stars because its a beautiful theater, but is not breathtaking. Its just la scala. The performance was good Not impressive. After watching thurandot at new york opera house ..im not easy to impress.. Lol. Weirdly we got tickets the night before, so , we didn't have to make lines.

Awesome building and great atmosphere grand arches make it a must see landmark. It’s perfect for a leisurely stroll, luxury shopping, or enjoying a coffee while soaking in the vibrant atmosphere. A truly iconic Milanese experience.

A stunning masterpiece of Italian architecture and style. The soaring glass dome, marble floors, and ornate ironwork make the Galleria one of the most elegant spaces in Europe. Standing at the center, beneath the famous mosaic of the bull, is a little ritual — spin your heel for good luck — and it’s fun to watch visitors from all over the world take part. Even if you’re not shopping, the beauty of the place makes it worth visiting. The light through the dome, the hum of conversation from the cafés, and the view toward the Duomo capture everything you imagine Milan to be — sophisticated, timeless, and full of life.

Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II is one of those places that makes you stop and stare even if you were just walking by. The second you step inside, you feel like you have entered a different world. The glass roof, the iron structure, and the floor covered with mosaics all hit you at once. It is elegant without trying too hard, classic but still alive. Every angle looks like it was made to be photographed, and somehow it never feels fake or staged. You can hear the sound of footsteps echoing through the hall, mixed with the low buzz of people talking, laughing, and shopping. Luxury stores line both sides, but even if you are not there to spend money, just walking through is worth it. The smell of coffee from the cafes mixes with the city air, and for a moment everything feels balanced between chaos and calm. If you look up, the glass dome above makes the light fall in a way that changes through the day, from soft in the morning to golden near sunset. It gives the whole place a quiet glow. You start to realize it is not just a shopping gallery, it is a piece of Milan’s identity. Old, proud, stylish, and built to last. It is one of those spots that remind you why Milan feels different from every other city.

Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II is not just a shopping mall it’s truly a masterpiece of architecture and Italian elegance. Located right next to the famous Duomo, this historic gallery feels like stepping back in time to the golden age of Milan. The stunning glass dome, the detailed mosaic floors, and the grand arches make it one of the most beautiful and photogenic places I’ve ever visited. The moment you walk in, you can feel the luxury and history surrounding you. Every corner is picture-perfect, and even if you’re not into shopping, it’s still worth visiting just to admire the design and atmosphere. The galleries are lined with high-end fashion brands like Prada, Louis Vuitton, and Gucci a paradise for luxury shoppers. Even the window displays are pieces of art. We also stopped for a coffee at one of the cafes inside, and it was a lovely experience sitting under the glass roof watching people pass by. Prices are a bit high (as expected in such a prestigious location), but the experience is totally worth it. You can also find restaurants offering delicious Italian cuisine perfect for a relaxing lunch after exploring the Duomo area. One tip: visit early morning or late evening to avoid the big crowds and enjoy the peaceful beauty of the gallery. At night, when the lights glow softly through the glass ceiling, it feels truly magical. Whether you’re a tourist or a local, Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II is a must-see in Milan a symbol of Italian craftsmanship, style, and timeless beauty.

Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II in Milan is a stunning 19th-century shopping arcade, named after Italy’s first king and designed by Giuseppe Mengoni. Opened in 1877, it’s Italy’s oldest active mall and a masterpiece of iron-and-glass architecture. Visiting with my family was a joy—we captured countless photos and videos of its elegant mosaics, soaring dome, and vibrant atmosphere. The Galleria connects Piazza del Duomo to Teatro alla Scala and hosts luxury brands like Prada, Gucci, Louis Vuitton, and Rolex. It’s not just a shopping destination, but a cultural landmark where history, fashion, and architecture blend into an unforgettable Milanese experience.

Walking into the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II felt like stepping into a luxury postcard. The glass dome, the mosaics, the high-end stores—all insanely elegant. I didn’t go inside any boutiques, just enjoyed the vibe. It’s the kind of place where you stroll slowly and take everything in.

The architecture here is IMPRESSIVE! While it looks like a regular shopping street, it's nowhere near that. It's a reminder of how majestic Italy and their history is. Take a look above you, and you see a dome. Take a look below you and you see Mosaic tiles. Each corner, each crevice, each tile perfectly placed. As you walk around, you will see the HEAVY hitters in luxury stores. LV, Prada, Chanel, Gucci, Versace, and many more. Even if you don't shop, it's still impressive to walk around and take in the beauty.

On a recent trip to Milan, we had the pleasure of visiting Castello Sforzesco and absolutely loved exploring this historic treasure. Admission is free, and you can walk around the grounds to enjoy the beautiful landscape and gardens. There are clean washrooms and even a few food trucks inside the premises where you can grab a drink or snacks. This castle is wonderful for visitors of all ages and is quite picturesque, perfect for some lovely Instagram photos. You’ll need about 1–2 hours to stroll around and take in the surroundings, though you can certainly stay longer and relax in the peaceful gardens.

Chose the free option so could only walk around the grounds but still a very impressive building. I believe a lot of the rooms are little museums and exhibitions. Definitely worth a visit whether you pay or not. Dates back to the 15th Century I think. Lovely fountain in front one of the entrances.

Really great walk even if you don’t visit the castle itself. Lots of different areas, I liked the fountain and the park the most as was a good walk in the Milan weather. It does get very busy though so watch out for any pickpockets but besides that great attraction to see.

Bring water! It’s a lot of stone and no breeze at all even on a November day it’s hot. The building is beautiful and fun to read about the different times and styles people wanted to build. (And all the holes are for scaffolding for fast and easy repairs)

Went here at around 16.00 with my boyfriend, it’s already dark and to go inside the castle is almost closed so we just spend an hour around the palace field and garden and it was Beautifuuuuuuuuul! They have a lot of information board with stories about the castles! Very interesting (and one tips is to bring your AI friends to ask them about everything you’ve been curious about) there are so many magnificent remains even outside the castle! Would love to come here again maybe in the morning to really explore inside 🤓

a lovely castle with many museums (picture gallery, Museum of Ancient art, Museum of musical instruments, Museum of decorative art and Museum o prehistory and protohistory). When I can, I go to the early period music concert which is a great quality in an exceptional atmosphere. The entrance ticket is not expensive and there are really many ancient objects to enjoy. There is a big park, Parco Sempione, just behind the castle.

Castello Sforzesco is a very large majestic castle in Milan. There are several entrances/ exits. There are both ends towers. Free toilets are also available. Outside, next to the castle is a large beautiful fountain. There is a food stall selling nice fluffy chestnuts at the entrance. Policemen on horses are awesome.

Seeing The Last Supper at the Monastery of Santa Maria delle Grazie was truly a once-in-a-lifetime moment for me. No photo or book could ever prepare you for the feeling of standing in front of Leonardo’s masterpiece. The atmosphere is quiet and almost sacred—you can sense the history in the room. I felt completely in awe, almost like time had stopped, just taking in the details and the emotion on each Apostles faces. It was absolutely worth the wait and all the planning. If you’re dreaming of seeing it, please do yourself a favor and book well in advance—tickets sell out quickly and you can’t just walk in on the day. This experience is something I’ll carry with me forever.

Amazing masterpiece of Leonardo da Vinci the last supper. We got a tour paid with the company GetYourGuide and it was very good. Not too friendly but very good explanations about the origin of the painting, history and holy stories about it. Bucket list

Visiting the Last Supper Museum in Milan requires significant advance planning, as there are no ticket sales on site. All tickets must be purchased online, and securing them is widely regarded as one of the most challenging museum bookings in Europe. Tickets are released only four times per year. For instance, tickets for the period from 1 November through 31 January become available on 30 September of that year. In addition, the museum releases a very small number of supplementary tickets every Wednesday at 12:00 PM (Milan time) for dates within the following couple of weeks. As a result, obtaining tickets often requires planning months in advance and checking the booking system diligently each Wednesday. It is, without exaggeration, a rather daunting and time-consuming process. Fortunately, we managed to secure a morning time slot during the week we were visiting Milan. Visitors must arrive at the gate 15 minutes before the scheduled entry time. The visit itself is strictly timed: you are allowed only 15 minutes inside the refectory to view Leonardo da Vinci’s Last Supper. While brief, the controlled environment helps preserve the fragile mural and ensures a quiet, intimate viewing experience. Despite the effort required to obtain tickets, the experience is unequivocally worth it. The painting is breathtaking; even after centuries of deterioration, restoration, and careful preservation, the mastery of Leonardo’s technique remains evident. The composition, the expressions, and the sheer presence of the work are awe inspiring and offer a profound connection to one of the greatest masterpieces in art history. A visit to the Last Supper is unquestionably worth the logistical challenge. It stands as one of Milan’s most extraordinary cultural treasures.

📍 Leonardo’s Last Supper Museum (Cenacolo Vinciano) – Milan, Italy 🇮🇹 Home to one of the most famous artworks in the world 🎨—Leonardo da Vinci’s Last Supper. The painting is housed in the refectory of Santa Maria delle Grazie ⛪ and seeing it in person is breathtaking. Entry is strictly timed ⏰, with only small groups allowed inside for about 15 minutes, which helps preserve the fresco. Tickets 🎟️ must be booked well in advance as they sell out quickly. A once-in-a-lifetime experience and an absolute must when visiting Milan. 🙌

15 minutes with one of the top 5 most famous works of art in the world. How do the tour guides maintain their pleasant demeanor when a recently minted Dan Brown-expert asks about the female to Jesus right?!

Must do with a guide. You only get 15 minutes to see the painting so the information from the guide really helps in bringing the story alive. Our guide Silvia Zucco was excellent - knowledgeable, patient and a wonderful storyteller.

Take the guided tour. Our guide was very nice, told in detail about the history of the painting, the characters and also took us to the church. You need to explore the interior yourself ( which is the best part)! They have preserved the place very nicely.

Really cool historic bridge with a stunning view. We parked outside the town, just next to the bridge. There's nothing much around, but it was worth the hour drive for us.

Beautiful place, in fact the village has been awarded as the most beautiful village in Italy couple of years back. I fully agree with that! Since we went on Xmas day, there were literally nobody around. The drive through the hill (last 10-15mins of drive) is bit difficult since the width of the road is just enough for one vehicle. But with almost no traffic, seems to be ok. I love to visit the tourist places when it is empty, and I am glad I picked the Xmas day for the visit. There is a restaurant near this bridge, but was closed. The village also was very quite. Just my kind of place!

Amazing medieval bridge below which is an area of river perfect for swimming. Lots of families, my children had a great time swimming about looking at the fish. Some shade under the arches of the bridge, recommend taking a picnic.

Great old bridge that you can walk from(into Bobbio. Also, it's possible to have a swim nearby, or cool your feet off

Historic Bridgestone with nice view. Good for stopover if you are driving through.

This old Roman bridge is worth a stop and walk over. Anyway if you want to take a nice pic you need to get to the other side. It's one if those places you can almost feel the history.

Beautiful bridge

Beautiful place! Quiet, very well restored. Enchanting landscape.

Beautiful hermitage, surrounded by chestnut trees and with a large oak tree in front. The paintings are true medieval frescos, and there are reliquaries of saints. Heartwarming the history of the blind brother Ave Maria.

Beautiful views inside and outside

Best place to pray, to make retreat and to buy the hand made religious articles of Fraiers of Don Orione. The tomb of venerable Frate Ave Maria adds more to the religious experience.

Very authentic and moving. Loved the smell of conifers on the patio. Good place to rest and let the thoughts wander.

Lovely to be able to work around freely and see the church. The grounds are beautiful too.

Peaceful, delightful and calm. The perfect place to meet the Infinite, just what an Hermitage should be

Serravalle Designer Outlet is a popular shopping destination located in Serravalle Scrivia, Italy. First time visited this outlet. It was great shopping experience here. To get here, I took the bus from Largo Cairoli Castello, which takes approximately 1.5 hours with cost 24 euro for roundtrip. It features a wide range of luxury and designer brands, offering discounted prices on high-quality products such as clothing, shoes, accessories, and more. The outlet mall provides a pleasant shopping experience, with modern facilities and a variety of dining options. It's an ideal place for shoppers looking for premium brands at affordable prices. Open daily , from monday to sunday 10 am to 8 pm.

A true melting pot of brands, ranging from luxury labels like Prada, Gucci, and Armani to more accessible names like Nike, Levi’s, and Lindt. If you're looking for a specific item at a reduced price, this is definitely the place to check out. Even without a shopping goal, it's easy to stroll around, enjoy the pedestrian streets, shaded corners, and the pseudo-village atmosphere. Parking is free and convenient, which makes the experience even smoother. Sure, the setting feels a bit artificial, but for a day of shopping or casual wandering, it does the trick.

If you’re imagining rows of glamorous boutiques and hidden designer treasures, think again. Serravalle is what happens when someone takes the word *“outlet”* too literally — it’s been drained of stock, charm, and reason to exist. Most stores look like the aftermath of a clearance sale nobody wanted. Celine’s men’s section had maybe twenty sad pieces clinging to hangers for dear life. Dolce & Gabbana? Just the bargain-bin D&G line pretending to be designer. Truly inspiring. And let’s talk about the “discounts.” They’re so tiny you’ll need a microscope to find them. Moncler’s “outlet prices” could double as comedy — same old coats, barely cheaper, just worse lighting. Add in an hour-long drive from Milan, and you’ve got the perfect recipe for regret. Serravalle isn’t a shopping destination — it’s a **masterclass in marketing disappointment**. Unless your idea of fun is overpaying for leftovers while surrounded by tour buses, do yourself a favor: **stay in Milan and shop like a sane person.**

Serravalle Designer Outlet is a fantastic shopping destination – spacious, clean, and very well-organized. It’s easy to get around, accessible, and offers a fun atmosphere for a full day out. The variety of shops is impressive (almost overwhelming – one day isn’t enough to see everything!). There are plenty of options for food and coffee, plus free Wi-Fi which makes the experience even more convenient. Overall, a great place to shop, relax, and enjoy.

There were discounts in every store. You can easily find sizes. It takes a whole day to visit all the stores. Visit the shopping center on weekdays because there are very few people.

We stopped to do some shopping here on the last day before returning to our country. The place is quite spacious, the parking is hard to find, but many famous brands aren’t available here.

We had 6 hours here due to the bus we booked from Milan, we saw a corner of this place, absolutely huge! Got very good discounts and there was enough stock.

The places does impress the wanderers due to its vastness and abundance of various exotic expostinions. There are many interesting acquariums including both commonly known sea critters as well as even more interesting unpopular ones. If it's not enough for you, don't worry! There are a handful of beautifully recreated biomes containing the richness of coral reefs, raw desert enviroments full with beautifull animals as well as huge pool with eager to play dolphins within.

I love visiting aquariums. My favorite places among the aquariums I've visited so far are L’Oceanogràfic Valencia, Monterey Bay Aquarium, Okinawa Churaumi Aquarium and Moskvarium. This aquarium Genoa is quite small but it's easy to visit location for tourists and jellyfish tanks were lovely. I visited there during the winter off-season and there was no line so I am not sure if it was necessary to buy the on-line entrance ticket in advance.

This city is unique, special, and legendary. Although there are a lot of immigrants who create problems of cleanliness and also other kind. This aquarium is very large and interesting. It took about 2 hours to fully explord it. There are many species of marine animals here. It is always interesting to look at them and at the same time read information about them. And a large hall with a huge panoramic glass wall, through which you can see dolphins swimming underwater, was the realization of a child's dream. Sitting there, listening to the soothing music and looking at this magnificence was incomparable. Many people believe that the price of entering an aquarium is high. Maybe that's true.

We LOVED IT, this aquarium is huge and has some sea life I haven’t seen in US. We love aquariums, you can’t go wrong. Our daughter loves the jellyfish and some cool snakes in there Husband said the manatees were amazing and large variety of sea life and frogs. When you start you are on the bottom level and you go through the whole bottom level… then you go upstairs and see everything upstairs but also have a view of sharks and other animals you saw downstairs and upstairs is best for pictures of the dolphins and sharks - for me. There is also an area you can touch some sea life.

Really enjoyed the aquarium! It is quite busy as one wood expect but it flows pretty well out and back. Lots of different species of marine life to see from all over the world. Buy tickets in advance to avoid lining up twice and beware all the people outside trying to sell/force stuff into your hands.

Great place to visit for all ages. It’s a beautiful aquarium that has everything you would expect. The heating is terrible and it is hot if you go in the summer. The animals are very active and seem to be taken care of well. If in the area, it is worth your time to visit.

Thoughtfully curated exhibits and environments such as Amazon, Lake Malawi, corals in addition to cetaceans, penguins, seals, sharks. Although the tanks and holding areas are quite large, it is sad to see the mammals and large fish confined. Dark tunnels add to the anticipation. Children will enjoy the touch tank area. Cafe, gift shops. Commentaries in Italian and English.

Great place with a nice and calm view on the yachts. Great service and delicious food that isn't expensive. Definitely enjoyable, especially on hot days as there are shady tables as well. The Tiramisu was amazing!

beautiful place with tasty food and an amazing view! the prices are also very nice and service on the high level, my waitress was super nice and friendly! Thank you for good lunch and mood!

A wonderful place located in Genoa Marina with delicious varieties of pasta.

No break time between lunch and dinner. You can enjoy a nice view. Staff is friendly. Food is good.

Delicious pasta, friendly service, beautiful location when the sun is shining for a glass of vino.

Stopped for drinks, lovely friendly owner,and staff. Nice happy atmosphere. Lovely views of the port, great coffee and beer. Wish we had more time to sample the food! Great prices too

I vomited for 2 days after eating there

Galata Museo del Mare is an absolute must-visit for history and maritime enthusiasts alike. Located in the heart of Genoa, this museum offers a fascinating journey through the city’s rich maritime heritage. The exhibits are incredibly well-curated, blending historical artifacts, interactive displays, and multimedia presentations. The life-size galley is a highlight, giving a vivid sense of what life was like aboard these magnificent vessels. The section on migration is particularly moving, offering an immersive experience that transports you to the journey of those who crossed oceans in search of a better life. The rooftop terrace provides stunning panoramic views of Genoa’s harbor—worth the visit alone! The museum is family-friendly, with plenty to engage children and adults alike.

Tons of interesting stuff, from ships, submarines all the way to immigration, it's great even if you are just a little bit interested in maritime transport.

Nice spot to explore and learn about naval history. Gallery has to-scale ships and also many interactive spaces. You can also go inside a decommissioned submarine. There is a nice view of the Genova area at the top of the gallery.

The museum is quite big. It consist of 4 levels with each floor has a different stor in which youre directed to have a tour route to enjoy all the story it host some colombus history, the genovese role, italian immigration around the world, and a replica how the ship looked like in the past. If youre scared of narrow space, id suggest to skip the submarine experience. Note: im a bit confused how to find the exit door at the end of the route.

Excellent journey through the centuries. A story of adventure, warfare, trade, slavery, immigration will told. Fun for all ages.

It is good maritime museum dated from beginning of ship development industry to the current status

Outstanding experience, not often seen in museums in general. Five floor building with a lot of contents, including real-size genoese vessels, various historical stuff about maritime history of the Genoa republic, and a great panoramic view and a seating area on the top floor. At the end, you even get a real submarine experience, located in the nearby port. Definitely worth visiting!

Great place to go around, but closed during the week. The place is rid with mosquitos though...

It's a UNESCO site, unique as it's the only one in the world that is complete as a citadel built in the Late 1700 s and built for an army of 70-100 thousand soldiers. The area has been invaded so many times over history, the buildings are so intact and well constructed the scale is mesmerising, when you're there you can only imagine how once it was so busy with thousands of young soldiers through time occupying that space and training . All that is left is the silence and the sound of the birds . It's free to view and at the weekend you can view the museum with the uniforms .

The building itself is impressive and has a lot of potential. But the site is not developed and in quite a sad state. It's OK for a quick walk through but I would not go out of the way to explore it.

Nice thing to see. Very impressive structure. But as it in many cases it looks more spectacular from Google Maps than in teal life. It feels abit abandoned .. not well kept.

Such a shame that this site has been left to ruin. We walked around the main square as that was as much as you had access to. Main entrance was closed so wasn't able to go inside.

Very disappointed how neglected this place is. Not recommended!

Can you immagine a better place where to talk about the story of Jossua and the walls of Jericó?
