Top 4 Places to Visit in Milan

Milan capital of the fashion industry and a must visit for visitors to  Italy , Milan is a livid Italian metropolis. To some, the city seems hasty and soulless, but beneath the veneer it has the unique sense of history and sights. In fact, the historic sites of Milan can’t compete with Rome or Florence, so it’s often added to the itinerary of Italy. However, Milan is one of my favorite cities that I love to visit every year. Here is my list of the top 4 places of Milan to visit this summer.

If you will look down the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele, then you will see the gorgeous emblems on the mosaic floor which represents the cities of Milan, Rome, Turin and Florence.

The Last Supper
