10/27/2013 - Milan, Italy
After history-loaded Rome and Florence, Milan felt like a real contemporary city. I first headed to some of its historic sights: the Cathedral downtown and the world's most famous opera house, La Scala. Outside of La Scala, there is a statue of Leonardo da Vinci.
But besides these few historic sights, most of what I saw in downtown Milan was like Chicago's Magnificent Mile. Lots of shopping, with all the famous Milan fashion brands (some I recognized, many I didn't).
Pictured: Milan's central shopping mall, Galleria Vittorio Emaneule II, between the cathedral and La Scala.
