Expensive shopping but amazing arcade
The Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II is a covered double arcade formed of two glass-vaulted arcades. The Galleria connects two of Milan's most famous landmarks: The Duomo and the Teatro Alla Scala. The Galleria is the site for many luxury goods' shops, like Gucci, Prada, Louis Vuitton as well as a McDonalds... Yeah, along side these expensive shops you can buy a cheeseburger, talk about culture crash :) But atleast they did have the decency to make it look as classy as a McDonalds can look. [more] |

Gallery/Shopping centre
Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II is actually a shopping centre and not a gallery as some may think! That doesn't make the architecture and building any less stunning. The 'gallery' is a glass-domed, belle epoque (so I'm told!) shopping arcade in the shape of a crucifix. Apparently if you stomp on the bull in the very centre of the arcade it would bring you good luck and prosperity but the bull is a bit worn now with everyone stomping on it! The Galleria is a perfect hang out for the 'Milanesi' with its designer shopping stores and up market restaurant. But... there is a McDonalds nestled amongst the designer shops- keeping the orginial facade though! [more] |
