MILAN ITALY 🇮🇹 4K Grandiose cosmopolitan metropolis / Holiday from Switzerland

Описание: Welcome to Italy!
Lombardy's capital city boasts a rich artistic heritage, is home to the prestigious La Scala theatre and a striking skyline dotted with skyscrapers.
Milan is a cosmopolitan metropolis with a European flair, and is considered one of the world's fashion and design capitals, a city of trendsetters and trailblazers. It is also a strategic financial centre at the international level, so much so that the Italian stock exchange is based here. Lombardy's capital has always been a shopping destination, concentrated in its Fashion Rectangle, the Quadrilatero della Moda.
Let’s not forget its luxury gastronomy, from traditional to fusion cuisine, nor the city's wide-ranging cultural offer, from exhibitions to live shows, best enjoyed after savouring a classic aperitif.
The destiny of Milan, like that of many of the world’s great cities, remains something of a historical paradox. There are powerful factors supporting the argument that Milan should have become the capital of a unified Italy, and this is the belief of many Milanese, in spite of the fact that the unity of Italy was actually born in Turin, rather than in Milan, in 1870. Milan, nevertheless, is the most industrious and vital city to have achieved prominence since the ancient land of Italy became aware of itself as a modern nation-state.
The fact that Milan is at a distance from much of the rest of Italy, that it is peripheral in a geographic sense, does not explain its position of “second city,” a position it has always vainly fought. Indeed, some of the greatest European capitals are peripheral in this sense. Rather, Milan’s role was the consequence of the immense historical importance and the enormous accumulation of myths and symbols that conferred on Milan’s antagonist, Rome, an inevitable prestige.
Yet although Rome remains the political capital of Italy, Milan has long been known as its “moral capital.”
Today Milan is the richest city in Italy and one of the richest in Europe.

Enjoy your walk in Milan!
