    Fürstenzug

    Arrive at the Fürstenzug. The long wall of porcelain tiles catches the early morning glow first. The light turns the historic figures warm and vivid against the grey stone.

    ecce - Kaffee & Getränke

    Walk eight minutes to ecce - Kaffee & Getränke. It opens at 15:00 on weekdays, so this timing is tight. If you arrive earlier, wait inside. Order a hot drink to start the day.

    Eiscafé Circus Milano

    Head to Eiscafé Circus Milano. It opens at 14:00 on weekdays. Grab an ice cream or a light snack while the morning air is still crisp.

Local tip
