Milan is just a three hour train ride from Bern so it’s become a semi-regular stop for us. I love Italy and I really enjoy Milan for showcasing the more cosmopolitan side of Italy. In Milan I walk, shop, look at art, and of course, enjoy aperitivo. It’s an approachable city, with lots of trendy new places to eat and drink that offer updated versions of Italian classics. The Navigli is so lively and fun, and there are even some beautiful green spaces to relax in.
