Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II in Milan at Night
The world’s first shopping mall.😀 An amazing place I visited on a number of occasions during this trip. Also home to an amazing Leonardo exhibit.
This is adjacent to the Piazza del Duomo and was filled with people and music each evening. A perfect place for passeggiata, and Italian evening stroll.

Remember he said it first:

Got a set of 4 cheap on Amazon. You can probably find them elsewhere, too.
