Milan is the city of Italian fashion, fine arts and an almost incomprehensible variety of designer stores. Italy's creative minds and influential high finance live in this vibrant city in Lombardy. Close to the luxury hotels in Milan's center, there are breathtaking buildings such as the Milan Cathedral or the luxury department store Galleria Vittorio Emanuele to discover. Plus: opera art at La Scala and shopping heaven in the Quadrilatero fashion district.
