This city is all about worldly pleasures. Shopping is of quasi-religious significance. Theatre and cinema flourish in this fashionable milieu, as does a hopping club scene and a slew of tempting restaurants. Apart from a few gems, the city is not renowned for its looks; it's lifestyle that counts.
MILAN
● When To Go
Most of the year Milan is as comfortable as a cardigan: not too hot, and not
too cold, either. There are occasional summer heat waves and springtime cold
snaps, and the odd hailstorm can bring on brilliant blue skies the next day.
During the entire month of August a calm descends over the city as the
Milanese head for the nearby hills and lakes.
