Milan is the obvious place to start. We would like to recommend the Monumental Cemetery while exploring the city, try visiting Porta Romana, Arco della Pace and the Sforza Castle afterwards.

Pavia on the other hand counts with one of the oldest universities in Europe, its Towers and the ancient Ponte Coperto. 

Admire the Caverns of Cattulo and the Capitolium in Brescia. If you are in Como, take a tour of its many lakeshore villas. Let's not forget about the Torrazzo in Cremona and Monza's Royal Villa. Palazzo Estense and the Fortress of Angera are a must in the Province of Varese.
