We arrived in Milan around 3pm, ready to cram in as much as possible, seeing as we were off to Venice the next day (I know, we don't stay in one place too long!) After ordering (naturally) a pizza, we headed to the Duomo di Milano. The gothic styled cathedral was absolutely breathtaking, and we were definitely blessed with the weather, sun, sun, sun!
Just a few minutes walk away from the Cathedral is a spitting image of London's Leadenhall Market, the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II. It is one of the world's oldest shopping malls, and by the masses of people, one of the most famous and renowned landmarks. Filled with high end shops from Versace and Prada to the most charming boutique café's I've ever seen. If only we weren't rushing around Milan, I would have loved to have spent more time to take it all in.
We made our way back to the hotel before heading off to our restaurant. Now, this restaurant was no ordinary restaurant, and definitely deserves a blog entirely dedicated to it, so watch this space for that!
So that was Milan! Well....for now. Unfortunately it was a short stop-over trip, but was worth the aching in my calves from all the walking! If I go back to Milan, which I mostly likely will have to as I didn't even get to shop (I know...), were would you suggest I go?
