Milan, the wealthiest city in Italy, is a popular tourist destination thanks to its old-world charm and rich history juxtaposed with modernity and bustling fashion industry. An art-lover’s paradise, the city is home to several masterpieces from the Renaissance era, including Leonardo da Vinci’s The Last Supper and Raphael’s The Marriage of the Virgins. Visit Duomo di Milano for its glorious architecture or spend time at Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II for buying high-couture. Walk the quaint streets to explore the fashion district or relish a gelato cone as you admire the city’s gothic architecture.
