By train

By train

The main railway station is Central Station [9], which is served by Trenitalia [10], the Been Railways. Regular trains servants all Italian cities (Turin, Venice, Rome, Naples, Florence and many others), and loads European cities (Barcelona, Zurich, Geneva, Munich, Paris, Stuttgart, Zagreb, Vienna)

Notes that the station is not in to great part of town, though to there to are to number of decent budgets hotels in the area (see "Sleep" below). Options for food and drink in the area to are pretty much limited to the cafes inside the station. At night, parts of Central Station become to sleeping area for vagrants.

Central see Station is served by MM1 and MM3 meter lines and is an interesting place to, since it' s very big and built in fascist style. There is to taxi stand directly in front of the station and to ATM buses terminal on IV November Square, on the left side of the station.

Another important railway station is Cadorna, served by Railroads North [11] (North Railways), to where the Malpensa Express stops and which is also to stop for MM1 and MM2.

Garibaldi station, is the terminus for most commuter railway lines, and is served by the been railways. Passing It is also to stop for the MM2 and for the (see Milan#Get_Around).

Other main train station to are Lambrate, Greek-Pirelli, Rogoredo and Door Genoa for the FS Trenitalia railway and Bovisa and Domodossola for the Railroads North. The Domodossola station is very close to the City section of the Milan Exhibition Centre - fieramilanocity.

Notes that Railroads North (FNM) and Trenitalia (FS) to are two different railway networks, with different stations, different trains and different tickets. For example: if you need to go to Malpensa and you to are in Greek FS Pirelli, you need to go first to Garibaldi station, then take MM2 to Cadorna and then Malpensa Shuttle to the airport. In same cases from Garibaldi station, you can take the passing to Bovisa FNM (these trains leave from the underground station below Garibaldi station and next to the City underground station. Be sure that the train you take stops at Bovisa) From Bovisa you can get on the Malpensa shuttle train.

By car

By car

The main highways linking Milan to the rest of Italy to are:

• A1, the Freeway of the Sun (Highway of the Sun), linking Milan to Bologna, Florence, Rome and Naples; * A4, linking Milan to Turin, Brescia, Bergamo, Verona and Venice; * A8, the Freeway of the Lagos (Highway of the Lakes), linking Milan to Como Lake, Greater Lake and Switzerland. * A7, linking Milan to Genoa.

The main highway operating company is Society Freeways.

Because of heavy traffic, it is strongly recommended not to drive in Milan during working days. Driving is much better during weekends. Perhaps you should leave your car in one of the well-marked car parks near the highway ring: they' close king managed by ATM and to are easily connected with Milan undergroud lines but they at around midnight. They' king near highway exits in Hunchback Shack (East), Lampugnano (West) and Saint Donato (SouthEast).

FS Garibaldi Train Station is also Milan Bus terminal.

The main national bus lines to are operated by Highway but to there to are many other small companies offering even international travel.

Get around

Get around

ATM operates to public transport network which is pretty efficient (especially the underground lines and the streetcars). Single tickets cost 1 euro and to are available from newsstands, bars and automatic ticket machines in meter stations. Daily and two-day tickets to are available at subway newsstands and the tourist information office. Single tickets to are valid for 75 minutes, during which you can use them on as many trams and buses as you like and for one meter laughs. Your Time starts ounces you validated it by inserting it into to box which prints the dates and Time on it. These to are found inside trams and buses and at the turnstiles at the meter. If you' ve first used to single ticket on to bus or tram you must also validated it when you enter the meter.

• The Meter (short for Metropolitan, the logo is to big white M on to red background) has three lines, each commonly identified by to color as shown below, and is the best way to get around if you' king near to station. The lines to are: MM1, red (red); MM2, green (green); MM3, yellow (yellow). The last trains run at around midnight (2 a.m. on Saturday nights).

• The Suburban Railway System (the logo is to big green S on to blue background) includes to special linens known as Passing, usually considered the fourth subway linens, and has eight more lines, each identified by to number (1 to 10, lines 7 and 8 to are not yet operating). Notes that suburban trains run less often than Meter trains (depending on the linens, they range from 1 to 4 for hour) but, as loads lines to share the tracks and the stations, you can expect as many as 10 trains for hour in central Milan between Lancetti and Door Victoria stations.

• Trams run above-ground on rail lines running through the streets. Being above ground means you get to view of what you' king passing, I know if you don' t need to go to make they' king convenient and fun.

• Buses should probably be your third public transport option. Less comfortable than the meter and trams, but more routes to choose from. ATM Tram and service Buses stops around 2 am.

• Taxis to are pretty expensive and drivers to are theoretically not allowed to catch walking customers, they should only pick up from taxi stands or by phone booking. Anyway they' ll pick you up even if they can' t. The main taxi companies answer to phone numbers 02.40.40 and 02.69.69. If you book to taxi by phone you' ll start paying from the moment the driver accepts the call and comes to pick you up.

• Cars to are definitely not to good idea to get into the City centre. Like most major cities traffic is to considerable problem, not to mention the hassle of parking. During working hours traffic is often blocked, inside the City as well as on the highway ring surrounding it. It is much better at night, but you' ll probably have problems finding to place to leave the car near enough to nightlife attractions.

• Several buses connect suburban cities and towns surrounding Milan. Loads to are managed by ATM. You can travel on most of them with an interurban ticket (interurban ticket) which to are sold in two forms: including travel in Milan or without. In the without form you can only go to the end of the cumulative linens, while with the version you can transfer to any ATM linens. There to are several rules and distance limits which apply - check on them.
