Planning your visit

Milan is arguably the lifestyle capital of Europe - certainly it's Italys creative heart. If you like to be where tomorrow's style is on view today - this is the ideal city break destination for you. Here shopping is less of a pastime and more of a way of life. Visit the Corso Vittorio Emanuele - the cities main thoroughfare and a mecca for retail fans. Located in the north and just 50 kilometres from Lake Como, Milan is a very modern city which is likely to be loved for its way of life rather than its looks. The weather is temperate - perfect for hanging out in the many bars, clubs and restaurants that thrive in this busy city. Life is centred on the Piazza del Duomo, circled by grand buildings - naturally including the the Duomo itself. This massive cathedral dominates the skyline. It is a huge marble-faced, Gothic-styled confection that showcases the world's largest stained glass windows. To get an unusual viewpoint of both the city and the cathedral you can take a walk on the rooftop. If music is your thing you will already know that Milan is home to La Scala - the world's best known opera house! Well it's certainly one of the most romantic.
