Top Museums in Lombardy

I found it helpful to download the Triennale app for maps and info—it saved me time wandering around looking for exhibits!

I suggest checking out the current exhibitions online before you go. Some displays change often, and you might miss something if you don’t plan ahead.

Don't skip the café! It's a great spot for a coffee break, and the views are beautiful. Perfect for some Instagram-worthy shots!

I recommend visiting on a weekday to avoid the crowds. I went on a Tuesday around 10 AM, and it was way less busy. You can really enjoy the exhibits without feeling rushed.

plan to spend at least 3-4 hours. there’s so much to see! i underestimated the time and had to rush through the coolest parts. don't make the same mistake!

Bring snacks or a water bottle. The café is pretty pricey and can get crowded. I ended up eating a sandwich outside, which was fine but not ideal.

Make sure to check out the Leonardo da Vinci section—it's super fascinating. I suggest getting an audio guide if you can, it really adds to the experience

The audio guide is really informative, but I think it’s worth checking the price first. I found it a bit pricey for just a few insights

If you can, visit on a weekday morning around 10 AM. The museum was quieter then, and I got to appreciate the art without the crowds.

I recommend visiting on a weekday, especially a Wednesday. It was a lot less crowded, and I could really enjoy the exhibits at my own pace.

Use public transport to get there; parking is a pain and it costs a bomb! The metro gets you super close, and it's easy to navigate.

If you can, get there around 3 PM. The late afternoon light in the courtyards is gorgeous for photos, and the crowds start to thin out, so you can explore more freely.

I recommend visiting on a weekday if you can – it was way less crowded when I went on Tuesday. Weekends seem packed with tourists, making it hard to really enjoy the place.

Look for discount tickets online before you go. I found a combo ticket that saved me some euro compared to buying at the entrance.
