Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II

The Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II is Italy's oldest active shopping gallery and a major landmark of Milan. It is right by Duomo, so it's hard to miss!

The Galleria connects two of Milan's most famous landmarks: The Duomo and the Teatro Alla Scala. So this is a great idea to visit all three in one trip.

Once arrival, you will surely admire the triumphal arch entrance, the iron-and-glass architecture and the stunning dome roof. The arcade principally contains luxury retailers selling haute couture, jewelry, books and paintings, as well as restaurants, cafés, bars, and a hotel, the Town House Galleria.

This space is great for photos, dining and shopping!
