"Milan on the rain" Milan by Klod5

Milan Travel Guide: 3,284 reviews and 5,797 photos

The few of days that we passed to Milano, we had right to a torrential, uninterrupted rain.

Milano's central galery

We tried to visit a few most important monuments of the center city therefore, and a little shopping.
Evidently the quality of the photos feels some. Already, when one comes with a group, it is more difficult to take his time, but in more, under rain, with an insufficient light and a pallid ambiance... Thank you the software of picture retouching, that allowed me to give back a little tonality to these some pictures.

Strange local's custom in Milano

We sacrificed to strange custom local (to see the set of photos), and we had the time to see some of the traps tourist and other dangers of the city.

The result: an impression mitigated on a gray, loud, very dear city and provided of one thousand dangers.

That does sound like an unusual custom for ladies. The hat shop is marvellous. Great pictures.
