[Milan Travel Guide](https://expedia.com/Milan.dx180012)

#### In the very heart of Milan, this neighborhood brings together old and new, creating a popular district with parks, art and shopping.

Nestled in the heart of Milan’s central ring, the bustling district of Porta Venezia combines high fashion and design, a park and museum complex and a lively immigrant scene. Have coffee in the public gardens and stay through late evening, when the streets hum with excitement.

Walk down Corso Buenos Aires, one of Milan’s famous shopping streets, allowing lots of time to visit the hundreds of stores on both sides of the street. Arrive at the Porta Venezia, an enormous 19th-century neoclassical gate. Lit up at night, it seems drawn directly from old Italian movies. Spot the impressive statuary, commissioned from the period’s best artists.

Continue into the Montanelli Public Gardens, an extensive English-style garden that is the perfect place for a picnic after the bustle of Corso Buenos Aires. Look into a simulated night sky at the Planetario di Milano or explore the region’s geological and biological history at the Milan Natural History Museum.

In Milan, art is never far away. Visit the Villa Reale, once a royal residence that is now repurposed for a city museum focused on art from the 1700s to 1900s. Get more modern at the Pavilion of Contemporary Art, featuring some of the world’s best artists. Walk a few blocks to the decorative arts exhibits of the striking Villa Necchi Campiglio, which re-creates the sensation of a 1930s period home.

Porta Venezia is in the center of Milan, easily accessible via most forms of public transportation. Use the subway station that serves the whole neighborhood or trams running up and down the Viale Città del Fiume. Limited metered parking is available in some nearby structures, but the neighborhood is best explored on foot. The area, especially Corso Buenos Aires, can be absolutely packed on weekends. For a more relaxed experience, visit midweek.

Most tourists leave after sunset. Plan to return to Porta Venezia in the evenings for some of the city’s best nightlife, largely driven by immigrant and LGBTQ communities.

Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II is the oldest still active shopping mall in Italy. Its name was chosen in honor of Italy's first king, Vittorio Emanuele II di Savoia, who laid the first stone on March 7, 1865. It was designed by architect Giuseppe Mengoni. Sadly he fell off the roof and died before his work was inaugurated in 1877. The tombstone in honor of the architect stands at the entrance of the gallery.
Its dimensions are impressive: the dome is 47 meters from the ground and is 39 meters in diameter. It was one of the first in Europe to use glass for such an imposing structure.
The top paintings were made by different painters and represent four continents and diverse activities such as art, agriculture, science and industry. In the center of the gallery floor is the mosaic with the coat of arms of the Savoys royal house.

A Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II é o mais antigo shopping ainda ativo da Itália. O seu nome foi escolhido em homenagem ao primeiro rei da Itália, Vittorio Emanuele II di Savoia, que colocou a primeira pedra no dia 7 de março de 1865. Foi projetada pelo arquiteto Giuseppe Mengoni. Tristemente ele caiu do telhado e morreu antes que a sua obra fosse inaugurada, em 1877. A lápide em homenagem ao arquiteto fica na entrada da galeria.
A suas dimensões são impressionantes: a cúpula está a 47 metros do chão e possui 39 metros de diâmetro. Foi uma das primeiras da Europa a utilizarem o vidro para uma estrutura tão imponente.
