Why Go on a Milan Vacation

There are a lot of ways to describe the city of Milan. For example, we can say that it's the second biggest city in Italy after its remarkable capital, Rome. It's also sometimes referred to as the economic capital of the country. And, of course, we can always use the well-worn "the fashion capital of the world". And although all of it is true, it doesn't really catch what a remarkable place Milan is.

Buzzing with life, it's the city where the future meets the past. Bright and stylish, but classy and traditional and the same time, a town where centuries-old churches are nestled side by side with the best examples of modern architecture. Milan is the city of contrasts, and regardless of what you are looking for, it surely can offer exactly what you need.

Especially if you are hunting for amazing sights as the city has plenty to offer. Why not start your Milan tour with a visit to the iconic Milan Cathedral, one of the biggest and most spectacular churches in the world. Or you can stop by the church of Santa Maria Delle Grazie first and admire its most renowned sight, The Last Supper Fresco by Leonardo do Vinci. No Milan trip is complete without adding a museum or a gallery (or even several) to your itinerary program, so why not continue to the Museo Poldi Pezzoli, Museo del Novecento Gallerie d'Italia, or Casa Museo Boschi-di Stefano? If you are a petrolhead, don't miss a chance to treat yourself with a souvenir from the Ferrari store, owned by the legendary company. And if you are a theater enthusiast, the brilliant Scala Theatre will make a great pit-stop during your Milan travel.

And, of course, regardless of how much time you have in the city, don't miss a chance to do some quality shopping in the fashion capital of the world.
