Milan
Europe's Shopping Mecca
Rome,
Venice, and
Florence have the beauty, the history, and the romance,
but while Milan may lack a great dose of all of that,
it beats them all in shopping. In fact, Milan just may be the world's greatest shopping city, and that's mainly what attracts
millions of visitors each year to its streets.
Via Montenapoleone together with Via della Spiga and Via Sant'Andrea nearby reunite all the big brands, and if they're not enough,
step into the famous Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II. The huge Duomo is right outside, from where you can then walk to another center
of design and fashion, or to the opera at La Scala.
This being the city of affluence and attitude, the restaurants and clubs also appeal to those who come for the Milan Fashion Week,
the Salone Internazionale del Mobile furniture show, or the Milan Triennale.
Milan is one long catwalk for the elegant and sophisticated Milanese, and joining them at their most glamorous venues is the city's main attraction.
