Milan is not only design, fashion and night-life. Milan is known also for music. Right in the heart of the city, only few steps from the Cathedral and Vittorio Emanuele Gallery, there is the temple of the music: La Scala Theatre and its Museum.
During the years many musicians left their precious contribution. Do you know Giuseppe Verdi, Gioachino Rossini, Luciano Pavarotti and Maria Callas? They are only few names, but many more passed by this place.
Nowadays, La Scala Theatre Museum preserves the most important collection of set designs, musical instruments and costumes used for the greatest performances.
Follow this 1.5-hour experience with your monolingual guide and you are going to admire this magical place.

Guided tour of the Theatre to the Scala highly recommended.
