One of the world’s fashion capitals, Milan offers endless opportunities for chic shopping. Hit the artsy neighborhood of Brera for leather goods and Via Monte Napoleone for exclusive, expensive boutiques. The enchanting mosaics and glass vaults of Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II make shoppers feel like they’re wandering inside a painting. Take break from your spree to gape at the iconic Duomo, then grab tickets to a performance at La Scala. Post-opera, the Navigli district pulses with late-night activity.

The edifice - which is a perfect example of the remodeling of the CityLife - is the work of Zaha Hadid, an Anglo-Iraqi architect. The large building strangely and aggressively soars to the sky. It is as if giants were playing, building a tower, and twisting it afterward. A 192-meter-tall skyscraper can be spotted from afar, with its glossy glass surfaces glittering across the horizon, and almost inviting the famous beautiful old monumental buildings to compete. Two eras, two designs are clashing, and both proudly bear the finest features of their own style.

This is a beautiful silent church in dark tones and the figure of St. Anthony is everywhere, on top of the tower on the church, in front of the church in an absolutely beautiful gentle fountain and inside in the main altar spotlighted and on the sides also. He is a very inspiring figure when you read his story. So it is nice to see his gentle face all over. We found the church very enjoyable. It is near the M2 Metro Station and directly opposite to the Monumental Cemetery and both can be combined in a single day and we did so. What the net says about St. Anthony is that he lived and dressed like poor people. So when he preached to them, they listen. They learned more from his life than from his words. Otherwise the preachers of those days from the richer class and did not have much an impact on the poor.

New neighbourhood with skyscrapers, shops and restaurants. There are many offices but it doesn't feel too corporate because of the green spaces and water features, especially great is the one in Piazza Gae Aulenti. From here one can continue to walk back to the centre through Corso Como.
