Sitting just below the Alps on the north western side of the Padana plain, Milan is a perfect cross point between Northern Europe and the rest of the Italian peninsula. It has always been one of Italy’s nerve centres in terms of history and culture - and, today, thanks to fashion and design, it’s also one of the trendiest places in the world. This book will guide you to the discovery of the best sights and museums, but also to the hidden secrets.
