The Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II is another key landmark to check out in the city. Italy's oldest active shopping gallery is home to iconic Prada, Gucci, Louis Vuitton and numerous other high-end boutiques as well as various beautiful restaurants. A short walk from the gallery, you'll find the Teatro alla Scala, Milan's most iconic and beautiful opera house, built in a neoclassical style.
