  • Tea kettles, silverware settings and other gorgeous items crafted by the top names in international industrial design, all manufactured in Lombardy.

  • Well worth a visit, especially for the massive discounts (30–50%) on men’s and women’s clothing.

  • All the major labels for men and women, including whatever’s hot this season. No great deals, but a remarkably broad selection.

  • Large, noisy room where the youth down beers from glasses so tall and unwieldy they require wooden stands to support them.

  • Boggi has been dressing the Milanese for years, providing them with classy men’s clothing and footwear at very reasonable prices.

  • A post-modern disco owned by a group of Premier League footballers. The DJs spin everything from revival pop to salsa.

  • This historic café on the main piazza has been a local living room (and site of rebellious debates) since the 16th century.

  • Città del Sole

    Branch of a chain of toy shops that offer the best in home-made playthings.

  • Fancy hearing a string quartet composed entirely of Stradivarius instruments? Cremona’s Teatro Ponchielli is about the only place in the world where this happens regularly.

  • This long road is where your average Milanese heads to shop, offering more than 350 shops in no particular order. You’ll find everything from handmade men’s dress shirts and Richard Ginori china to bootleg records.
