Milan is a fascinating city where history and modern sophistication come together. The streets continue from the Middle Ages, lined with luxury brand shops and stylish cafes, making it the epitome of Italian elegance. In the center of Milan is the beautiful glass arcade "Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II," where you can enjoy both history and shopping.
Milan, the city where art and fashion intersect
Milan has been loved by many artists since the Renaissance era. There are many spots where you can enjoy art, such as the Church of Santa Maria delle Grazie, where Leonardo da Vinci's "The Last Supper" is located, and the world-famous La Scala Opera House.
Milan, also known as the city of fashion, is also attractive for its areas where luxury brands gather, such as Via Montenapoleone and Via della Spiga. The sight of the latest fashion lined up in historic architecture creates a special atmosphere unique to Milan.
Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II, a symbol of Milan
Located right next to Milan Cathedral, Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II is a magnificent arcade built in the 19th century. The ceiling is decorated with a beautiful glass and steel dome, and the interior is a glamorous space lined with luxury brand shops, cafes, and restaurants.
Make a wish to the "lucky cow"
The floor of the Galleria is decorated with beautiful mosaics. The most famous of these is the mosaic of the **lucky bull**. It is said that good luck will come if you place your heel on the crotch of this bull and spin three times, and tourists and locals take turns trying it.
A luxurious moment in the arcade
Inside the Galleria, you can enjoy meals and cafe time in a classic atmosphere at **Cafรฉ Bondi, which has a history of over 200 years, and Italy's representative restaurant, **Savini. The espresso and gelato you can enjoy here are especially special.
Summary
Milan is a sophisticated city where history, art, fashion, and gourmet food blend beautifully. Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II is an iconic spot where you can enjoy all of these elements. When you visit Milan, why not walk through the beautiful arcades and fully experience the charm of the city?
