When it comes to name-dropping, Milan is probably the most notorious, with Gucci, Armani, Versace, and Prada among the few flagship fashion boutiques that call Milan home. In addition, this Italian city is also the world capital for home goods and furniture, making it a veritable shoppers’ paradise where you can spend a small fortune on the latest fashions or score a deal by snatching last season’s samples. Milan also offers more depth than meets the eye, with notable sights such as the La Scala opera house, the Leonardo da Vinci Science and Technology Museum, Sforzesco Castle, Santa Maria delle Grazie Church (home to da Vinci’s “The Last Supper”) and the Duomo, a truly spectacular cathedral worth the visit alone. Your Milan vacation will be rich in fashion, art, and culture.
