Galleria Vittorio Emanuele IIBest of IgoUgo

Attraction | "Galleria Vittorio Emanuele"

The Galleria is one of the first buildings in Europe built in glass and iron. It is called, il salotto di Milano because it is the traditional meeting place of the Milanese. It offers a wide range of cafes and restaurants, such as the historical restaurant Savini. Also, there are fashion boutiques, and the most important bookshops in the city.

It's a great location to to look around the shops, all the top designers (Gucci, Prada, Armani, Max Mara) have shops here. Prada also has a large outlet in the Galleria. Then you can enjoy a meal, or drink, in one of the restaurants or bars and watch the chic Milanese go by.

DuomoBest of IgoUgo

Attraction | "Duomo, The Cathedral"

Duomo, The Cathedral is amazing
The Duomo is definitely worth a visit. The Cathedral Duomo in Milan is the largest Gothic cathedral in the world. This building has some incredible details. The Duomo looks impressive from outside, and the inside is amazing. If you have the chance, go to the rooftop of the cathedral. When you get up there you get a fantastic view. It's a piece of art, all those spires.

Worth a visit!
