Milano — Duomo e Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II

Lombardy

Milan's Duomo, with its forest of marble spires, took nearly six centuries to complete and stands beside the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II, an elegant iron-and-glass shopping arcade often called the world's oldest shopping mall. The flat piazza and gallery floor give easy, level walking, a very different Milan from the city's outlying parks.
