This has to be one of the biggest train stations I have ever seen. It is massive. Beautiful architecture with a big history. Seems there are rooms in this train station closed to the public that have Nazi symbols from when they were getting ready to welcome Hitler. So much to see all over this station. Lot of stopping and restaurants. Wish we had time to take a tour of the station. Really glad we got to see this work of art while in Milan for the day.

This skyscraper is emblematic of Milan's post-war economic boom. It was built between 1955 and 1960 as the headquarters of Pirelli Industries. With its heght of 127 metres, it was at that time one of Europe's talles reinforced concrete buildings, displaying a balance between form and structure that has yet to be surpassed. Many people love it many oters hate it, if you love architecture like me , you will definetly love it.

Next to Milan's Central Station, at the beginning of Viale Andrea Doria, are the remains of the Cascina Pozzonbelli. The complex was built in 1498 in a Lombard, Renaissance style, probably on an ancient monastic building from the Congregazione degli Umiliati, which was bought and transformed into a home for the Pozzonbelli, a Milanese noble family. Behind an elegant portico with rounded arches on columns are a small oratory and the remains of a complex which was once much larger. Mostly destroyed in 1907, the chapel still features remains of a fresco and the elegant portico vaults.
