Corso Vittorio Emanuele

Corso Vittorio Emanuele is known as 'Milan’s living room'. This pedestrian street connects Piazza Duomo and San Babila metro station and provides a great shopping experience for the entire family. Luxury boutiques like Louis Vuitton and Prada are right next to popular fast fashion brands like Urban Outfitters or Bershka. Good for all ages and budgets. In the evening Corso Vittorio comes alive with film lovers flocking to the many cinemas. A number of bars and small eateries remain open until late at night, packed with locals enjoying the night out after catching a film.

Shopping

Milan is the capital of fashion, and there is plenty to choose from when it comes to shopping. Even those less interested in fashion (or who can’t afford the often high prices) will find exploring Via Monte Napoleone, Via della Spiga and the surrounding streets rewarding. This is where all the fashion houses have their impressive flagship stores. Armani’s department store on Via Manzoni 31 is a good example, or Gucci’s store on Via Monte Napoleone (this one covers an entire city block). Dolce & Gabbana’s impressive store on Corso Venezia is housed in the former palace of a Sicilian nobleman.
