  Covers Milan's remarkable architectural heritage, from the elegant Galleria Vittorio Emanuele to the 14th-century Piazza del Duomo - explores the culture of the city, taking in a visit to Leonardo's Last Supper and an opera at La Scala - visits the old, cobblestoned neighbourhood of Brera, with its antique shops and art galleries - 'Milan is the Italian melting pot, Italy's picture window on the modern world, where the young and ambitious gravitate to see their talents rewarded.
