Milan
If Rome is known for the sweet life, Milan is the definition of the stylish lifestyle. Italy’s second largest city is today the country’s first-ranking economic powerhouse. And, of course, synonymous with fashion or rather one of its capitals, since here (as in Paris and London) new trends and design are created, while some of the biggest Italian fashion houses are based here. In short, the Milanese have style in their DNA! The city seems to be in constant motion. It’s hard not to captivate you with its frenetic rhythms or not to excite you with its cultural and artistic heritage. Aesthetics are everywhere, in buildings, shops, products, entertainment, food and, of course, fashion. To get just a small but distinctive taste of Milan – especially if you’re only there for a weekend – take the classic tourist route, which starts in the center and the beautiful Gothic Duomo with its piazza and Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II. Then head northeast to Via Montenapoleone, where the boutiques of major fashion houses are located, past them and head towards the Galleria d’Arte Moderna and the Giardini Pubblici gardens. In fact, the heart of the city beats in the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II and the Golden Triangle, that is, Via Montenapoleone and the surrounding streets, where the expensive stores of the biggest fashion houses are located. But there are also streets for a smaller selection, such as Via Torino, where you will find well-known chains of clothing and accessories stores, or Largo Carrobbio, with small boutiques for more alternative clothing.

Morning departure for the elegant, traditional city of the Italian north, the beautiful Bergamo. The city lies between the imposing landscape of the Alps to the north and the Pianura Padana, the densely populated plain crossed by the River Po, to the south. Bergamo develops on two levels: the atmospheric Citta Alta (Upper City), the Roman-era Civitas, perched on a rocky hillside, forming one of Italy's most beautiful urban settings – an ensemble of cobbled streets, medieval palaces and Gothic churches, enclosed by well-preserved 16th century Venetian walls – and the more modern Citta Bassa (Lower City), the lowland Suburbia, which has a functional urban development with beautiful historic buildings, squares and pedestrian streets. Visit and free time to walk the picturesque alleys of the old town, enjoy the amazing panoramic view from its walls, drink a coffee or try the sweet polenta e osei and other delicacies in the impressive Piazza Vecchia, which according to the Swiss architect Le Corbusier is the most beautiful square in Europe. Then we will depart for romantic Verona, the city of Shakespeare's eternal lovers.

Identified with Fiat, Juventus, but also with chocolate, which is served in many versions as a raw material in the historical coffee shops. Its cultural heritage from the House of Savoy and its Art Nouveau tradition are reflected in important Baroque architecture, such as the Palazzo Reale and the Palazzo Madama in the large Piazza Castelo square. The Mole Antonelliana tower, the former Jewish synagogue built in 1863, the work of Architect Alessandro Antonelli, which today houses the Italian Cinema Museum, is the symbol of the city. Other great attractions, which make Torino famous, are the famous Egyptian Museum, the second largest after Cairo and finally, the Cathedral of the city of particular importance for the whole of Italy, since it houses the holy shroud of Christ.
