If you’re travelling to Milan for the first time, a visit to the prestigious La Scala opera house is a must. You’ll also discover several exceptional museums; art enthusiasts can view a wide range of pieces, including 19th and 20th-century Italian art, at Gallerie di Piazza Scala and marvel at da Vinci’s ‘Last Supper’ masterpiece at Santa Maria delle Grazie. For a glimpse of the local art scene, explore the lively Navigli district's quaint side streets where local artists’ studios and colourful murals can be found.

Palazzo Citterio, a new addition to the city’s museum scene, is a high-brow destination near the Pinacoteca, Milan’s main art gallery. This new museum is linked to the Pinacoteca as part of the “Grande Brera” project, an initiative aimed at uniting Palazzo Citterio, the Pinacoteca di Brera, the Braidense Library, and other institutions in the district, making the area a cultural hub of Milan. 

Milan's architectural landscape is a melting pot, where Art Deco buildings stand alongside a futuristic skyline. The spectacular Duomo di Milano showcases design styles spanning six centuries, and you can head up to the rooftop for fabulous views.

Esteemed Italian fashion houses, from Prada to Dolce & Gabbana, were founded in Milan. Today, the cosmopolitan city is scattered with department stores and designer boutiques. Peruse sophisticated shopfronts in the exclusive Golden Quadrilateral shopping district, browse Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II, one of the world's first malls, and then soak up the atmosphere at Navigli’s street markets or hunt for vintage bargains at Mercato di Viale Papiniano. For relaxation, QC Termemilano, housed in a former tram depot, offers several saunas, a Jacuzzi waterfall and a tasteful tea room.
