Neo Kisho In Milano

It's incredible how a place with so many people works so well, even the bathroom is clean and organized.

The castle is impressive, both during the day and at night, when the illuminations are on.

Beautiful castle with small fountain in front. I went there with family when I passed by and it's unexpectedly nice place. There are museums inside and need time to walk or you can just chill there. There are small food truck in front and cafe inside. The night is even more prettier than the day time during New Year in January 2025

Very cool visit, the castle is impressive and the surrounding area to walk around is great.

The former residence of the Doges, it is now one of the largest medieval fortresses in Europe

It has its own charms and beauty

Spectacular castles that can be visited for free in the courtyards.
