Milan is one of the fashion capitals of the world and, thanks to its dynamic life, productivity and inventive capabilities, it is one of Europe’s leading cities. The most multi-cultural city in Italy, and avante guarde by all standards, Milan is a financials professional and cultural leader in Italian life and a shopper’s paradise.


Milan, the stylish capital of Lombardy, is a compact city with five distinct areas. Each of these can be visited on foot and are interesting in themselves. The historic centre houses the Duomo and Teatro alla Scala, and the larger north eastern district includes the Brera Quarter with its famous art gallery, Gorso Venezia, and the oddly named Quadrilateral with its designer shops.


Haute couture is at home in Milan and, if clothes are on the shopping list, visitors to this chic city will not be disappointed. Nor should we forget the food for which Italy is famous, and Milan can provide something for every taste, from delicious pasta to more exotic dishes such as the famous osso bucco.
