Forza Fashionistas

by Paisleypaul - last update: Feb 19, 2006

Football, Fashionistas and a fear of heights!

From atop the Duomo
We flew to Milano Linate Airport mid February 2006 for a stay of 3 nights. Known to myself mainly for football - AC & Internazionale -& the catwalks' high fashion, the Duomo and Piazza del Duomo is the real lasting image I have of Milan - spectacular views from the roof top
Corso Genova on a miserable afternoon

Working city

Whereas with Rome every non descript street somehow ends in a finely sculpted piazza and landmark fontana, Milan seems readier to get it's hands dirty with honest graft
Piazza Santa Maria delle Grazie

Piazza Santa Maria delle Grazie

The picture here is Piazza Santa Maria delle Grazie - as close as you will get to seeng the Cenacolo LAst Supper mosaic if you do not book, as we learned to our cost - 4 days' waiting list in mid February !

Pros:"Vibrant city with great art architecture and cuisine"
Cons:"Scattered points of interest to trek around in the February cold!"
In A Nutshell:"Two and a bit days did no more than scratch the surface"
