Milan is the second largest city in Italy after Rome and the capital of Lombardy. It’s well known as being the home of high-end Italian fashion designers, and many people come to Milan just for the shopping.
However, there is lots more to do in Milan than shop. The city has spectacular artworks, including one of the most famous murals in the world, Leonardo Da Vinci’s The Last Supper. It also has loads of museums, fantastic food, parks, churches, and cultural activities.
Milan also makes a great base for exploring the local region, with popular destinations like Lake Como, Lake Garda, Verona, and Bologna, only an hour or so away by train.
