Audio tour · Galleria Vittorio Emanuele Secondo

1:59

You're standing in the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele the Second, Italy's oldest working shopping arcade and one of Milan's great landmarks. Start by looking up. Above you stretches a roof of glass and iron, and right in the middle the arcades meet beneath a huge glass dome. The Milanese call this il salotto di Milano, the city's drawing room. It's where you meet friends, grab a coffee and watch the world go by.
