Milano è ricca di monumenti storico-artistici di altissimo valore che testimoniano le vicende del capoluogo lombardo attraverso i secoli.
Il Castello Sforzesco è uno dei luoghi simbolo della città, tra i più popolari ed affascinanti.
Fu costruito nel XV secolo da Francesco Sforza, divenuto da poco Duca di Milano, sui resti di una precedente fortificazione, subendo nei secoli notevoli trasformazioni e ricalcando la storia della città.
Oggi il Castello è sede dei Civici Musei, dal 1896 ospita una delle più vaste collezioni artistiche della città ed è uno dei più grandi castelli d’Europa.
Rappresenta una piacevole sosta tra arte e cultura nel verde di Parco Sempione.
Al meraviglioso “polmone verde” vi si accede attraverso il monumentale Arco della Pace, la “porta d’ingresso” della città, una meta assolutamente da non perdere per chi visita Milano.
Ideato in onore di Napoleone Buonaparte, fu costruito dal 1807, ma interrotto dopo la disfatta di Waterloo. Venne quindi terminato da Francesco I d’Austria e dedicato alla Pace.
E’ uno dei più interessanti monumenti neoclassici, con tre fornici, delimitati da quattro massicce colonne corinzie, fittamente decorato da bassorilievi allegorici con episodi della Restaurazione, coronato da una monumentale “Sestiga della Pace”, il cocchio a sei cavalli in bronzo.
Giunta ai piedi del monumento, piacevolmente indugio per scoprirne la sua chiave simbolica, mentre indosso un lungo abito plissè nel colore principe della stagione più calda dell’anno, il bianco, che esalta l’abbronzatura dorata e le sfumature della chioma.
Usa anche tu l’eleganza se vuoi goderti l’estate con leggerezza e tantissimo stile.
È questa la ricetta moda da seguire con l’abito lungo, goditi la fresca brezza estiva con addosso un abito impalpabile e leggerissimo.
Aside from the majestic cathedral, Duomo di Milano, there are so many historic landmarks you can also add on your list when you want to travel to Milan.
I had a glimpse of Italian history at Castello Sforzesco and Arco della Pace.

Sforza Castle is a surprising monument sheltering several specialized museums and traces of the city’s past.
An oasis of art and culture.
Originally a Visconti fortress, this iconic red-brick castle was later home to the mighty Sforza dynasty, who ruled Renaissance Milan.
The Arco della Pace (Arch of Peace) is one of the symbols of Milan and one of the most important neoclassical monuments in the city.
It is a triumphal arch, initially built in the early nineteenth century as part of the “Foro Bonaparte” – a modern version of a Roman Forum – to celebrate Napoleon’s victories, now serves as the entrance to Parco Sempione.
Due to the dense concentration of bars, clubs, and restaurants located around the Arco della Pace, it is one of the best places in town to experience the “Milanese movida”.

I’m just arrived at the foot of the monument and pleasantly delayed to discover its symbolic key, while I’m wearing a pleated maxi dress in the main color of the hottest season of the year, white, which enhances the golden tanning and the shades of my hair.
You have to use elegance if you want to enjoy summer with lightness and style.
This is the fashion recipe to follow wearing maxi dresses, enjoy the cool summer breeze with an impalpable and lightweight dress.
