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.

This area in Milan offers reasonably-priced restaurants and some of the city's most exciting nightclubs.
The canal path is a lovely setting for an afternoon stroll - as I did - or you can come here after 6pm when the evenings liven up with happy hour for food and drink at the many bars and restaurants that line the paths. It's a picturesque setting with walkways both sides of the canal and various bridges on route to stop and take photos from.

This busy and vibrant city square features the gothic cathedral, one of the largest in Europe.
Your first trip to Milan would not complete without visiting this area. The ambience in this area is amazing. It gets a little busy but what do you expect from the scenic vistas and the shops in the area. One thing I would say is watch your personal belongings as according to the Locals there are a lot of pick pockets and thieves in the area who are very clever. We had breakfast and coffee at the Gran Caffe Visconteo which was very reasonable and the staff are brilliant and every helpful

This is probably the best and most original street in Milan. Starting from La Scala it leads all the way out from the Old city to the Porta Nuova. Numerous shops and restaurants around. True Milanese feel.

Piazza della Scala is a significant square adjacent to Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II in Zona 1 Centro Storico area of the city. In the middle of the square is the monument of Leonardo da Vinci which was sculpted by Pietro Magno in 1872. There are some important buildings surrounding the piazza including Teatro alla Scala opera house from which the piazza takes its name and is situated on the north western side, at the opposite side is Palazzo Marino. The piazza is certainly impressive and was relatively quiet when I visited in July 2020, it is a part of the city that cannot be missed on a visit to the city.
