Milan is Italy's second city (after Rome) and the main city of northern Italy. The city itself has around 1.3 million inhabitants, but including the surrounding suburbs, this number is 4 million. The 20th century drew many immigrants to Milan, as such Milan has quite a multicultural atmosphere. Milan is a vibrant and booming city, perhaps the most prosperous city of Italy. But Milan is also one of the leading cities in terms of fashion. Amongst others, Versace and Armani have established their home base in Milan.
Italy is also known for its excellent cuisine. So after a nice day of shopping in the best shops Europe has to offer, you can enjoy a delicious pizza, pasta or other typical Italian dishes in many of Milan’s restaurants. But next to dining and shopping you should not forget to visit some cultural sights. “Must see” historic buildings in Milan are the Castello Sforzesco and of course the famous Duomo, the constuction of which took more than 500 years.
And let's not forget the monastery of Santa Maria Delle Grazie, where Da Vinci's famous mural of The Last Supper is located. Even the football stadium of Milan, Meazza (San Siro) Stadium, where both AC Milan and Inter Milan play their matches, is worth a visit.
