Milano, the financial centre of Italy and the country's economic engine, has something to offer everyone and is an ideal destination: easy to reach, near the sea, mountains and lakes.
With over 1,300,000 inhabitants, our stylish city is also the world's fashion and design capital and every year it hosts several international exhibitions that attract people from all over the world.
Fashion weeks in February and September set the trends for the next year, and the Salone del Mobile in April presents all the latest ideas in the world design industry.
Milano is a fascinating location to be discovered little by little, whatever your interests are.
There are historical buildings to admire such as Il Duomo, our huge gothic cathedral, La Scala opera house, Leonardo Da Vinci's Last Supper and Castello Sforzesco, museums to visit and hidden treasures such us the Bohemian area of Brera, with its art galleries and the artisits's cafés, the fortune-tellers and the antiques shops. And what about 10 Corso Como and the Galleria Sozzani? They are not to be missed during your stay in Milano.
Milano means lifestyle and entertainment: whatever your age, taste and expectations are, in Milano you will find what you are looking for! Opera, salsa dancing, theatres and nightclubbing, restaurants and bars that cater to every taste.
