    A private guided tour will lead you to discover the wonders of this iconic cathedral, whose construction lasted for more than five centuries, from late 14th century to the 1932 completion. Well-known for its Gothic style, costantly evolved and interpreted until the actually Neo-Gothic ultimate addictions, it is surmounted by the golden copper "Madonnina", the symbol of Milan.

    The "Galleria", as Milanese citizens usually address this place, could be considered one of the very first malls in the world and an outstanding example of iron architecture of the late 19th century. It hosts historical boutiques and cafeterias and has always acted as a gathering place for artists and intellectuals.

    Considered as one of the most prestigious opera houses in the world, the Theatre was built between 1776 and 1778, under the government of Mary Therese of Austria. The great composer Giuseppe Verdi made his debut here in 1839 and after a few years, in 1842, performed for the first time his "Nabucco", which made the Teatro alla Scala one of the symbols of Italian Risorgimento.
