Italy Two Centre Holidays - Milan

At first glance, Milan is a bustling powerhouse of a city. As Italy’s Fashion Capital, the source for some of the most prestigious and cutting edge designers in the world and a thriving centre for commerce and industry, it’s no wonder Southerners mock the Milanese for their fast-paced, workaholic lifestyle. But surrounded by the serene calm of the Italian lakes, Milan has a softer side that opens up when you dare to explore this cosmopolitan city, visible in its thriving café culture and enviable cultural heritage. Chic Travellers may come for the shopping at the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II, but stay for sights such as Milan’s Duomo, the world’s largest Gothic Cathedral, Renaissance man Leonardo’s masterpiece ‘The Last Supper’, and hoards of important art galleries and ancient churches. A visit to La Scala, the high temple of Opera promises an evening of inspiring music in a most majestic setting, and is the perfect end to any stay.
