Photo quests in Milan

What the catalogue actually holds here, and which of it is worth rearranging a day around.

Milan holds three quests, one in each of Art, Food and History.

One is tier 1, the tier kept for what a visitor would not have found on their own: La Scala. It is also the only quest here whose check-in asks for PRO; the other two are open on any plan. Tier 3 covers one of them, which is the label for what a visitor would expect a travel app to have anyway.

Art covers the work and the building around it, so a mural on an ordinary street counts alongside the collection with a ticket desk. A food quest names the dish rather than the restaurant: the pin sits on the room that serves it, but what you are going for is the plate. Every check-in works the same way: the geotag your camera wrote into the photo has to land within 200 m of the quest's own point.

Milan is a short list for now — three quests is exactly the floor a city needs to have a page here at all. It grows when the pipeline publishes into Milan again, and nothing about this page has to change for that to happen.

By category

Each of these opens the whole category across every city, with the Milan quests among them.

Tier 1

The unexpected ones

The one quests in Milan the catalogue files as finds rather than fixtures — the half of a city a guidebook has no room for.

Questions

About quests in Milan

How many photo quests are there in Milan?
3, across History, Art and Food. Nothing in Nature, Beach, Sport and Party here yet — a category appears in a city the moment a quest is published into it, so the gaps move. They are: Duomo di Milano, La Scala and Pizza.
What is there to do in Milan beyond the obvious?
One of the 3 quests in Milan is tier 1, which is the catalogue's own mark for a find rather than a landmark: the pipeline that writes it is told that tier 3 is "everything a visitor would expect a travel app to have", and that tiers 1 and 2 are "only the unexpected finds". Milan holds one at tier 1, one at tier 2 and one at tier 3. The tier 1 quest here is La Scala, in Art.
Can you do all the Milan quests on one trip?
Most of them, with transport. The outermost of the 3 is 14 km from the middle of the Milan list, so the cluster in the middle is an afternoon and the edges are a bus or a taxi each.
Which Milan quests can you do for free?
2 of the 3 can be checked in on the free plan, and all 3 can be read and travelled to without paying anything — the catalogue is open signed out, on every plan. PRO covers the check-in on the hardest tier, which in Milan means one quest: La Scala.
How do I prove I visited a place in Milan?
Take the photo at the place and upload it. Your browser reads the location the camera wrote into that file and measures it against the quest's own coordinates; inside 200 m the check-in counts. The distance is measured to the point, not to the city: being in Milan is not what is checked, and a photo taken across town from Duomo di Milano fails exactly the way one taken at home does. A file with no location in it cannot be checked at all, and a photo that has been through a messaging app usually arrives that way — upload the original out of the camera roll rather than a copy someone sent back to you. The Food quests in Milan sit on the room where the dish is served rather than on the dish, so that address is what the 200 m is measured from.
