una bellissima esperienza e la guida molto preparata, grazie
An interesting and imposing cemetery, large and rich, definitely worth a visit. Even though the word “cemetery” might sound off-putting, it’s truly a place worth seeing. It doesn’t feel like a cemetery, more like an open‑air museum. ⛪️
At first, we didn’t really feel like visiting a cemetery as tourists, but we went in the end — and we don’t regret it. The tombs are monumental and more beautiful than any I’ve seen before, and I didn’t feel out of place walking there. It actually felt touching to see how people honor their loved ones. Definitely worth a visit, and the entry is free.

Beautiful cemetery in Milan with amazing statues, tomb stones, mausoleums, and crypts. Well worth a visit if you have enough time. No entrance fee and there are lots of shade trees and fountains to refill your water bottle.
Huge historic cemetery full of highly artistic, beautiful sculptures in various styles. It looks like an open air sculpture museum. Many monuments are inherently sad, conveying the feelings of melancholy and loss, while others are grandious and glorifying. I highly recommended to pick up the map at the visitor center, where the most significant monuments are highlighted.
Damn! This is so huge. Such a majestic cemetery with grand tombs everywhere. Crazy it was with a cloudy dark drizzle atmosphere when we visited! The place had some haunted vibes! But it was so nice to walk around and enjoy this. I would recommend all to visit this place if it is a little dark and cloudy day. Will give different vibes here. There are lots and lots to see here, the ultimate famous tombs and inscriptions. There is a church adjacent to this. Recommended! Must see! 🥶👌🏻😁
