    For a spot of luxury shopping, look out for the glass-roofed arcade Opened in 1867, 20 years before the Eiffel Tower was built. Amazing place to visit!

    Taking that classic wander through the Galleria, the very heart of the city creates a wonderful sensation. Decorated with patriotic mosaics and statues. It's just the paragon of shopping arcades!

    Mother of all malls!!! Grand and chic. However most of the shops will be way high than what you pocket can afford. Right next to Duomo. Great for strolling and window shopping.

    Loved the Leonardo Museum, where I learned a lot about the things he invented, and his life. The shopping mall is really impressive looking, and you feel the history of the location.

    One of the world's oldest shopping centre. Do pay a visit even if you're not interested in shopping, as the arcade itself is very grand and beautiful as well.

    Visiting here is a must when in Milan! It's a glass-covered area with exquisite mosaic floor that has many high-end stores right off the Piazza del Duomo.

    Stunning place to shop and eat, but prepare to be asked to move out of the way so that vain people can have their photo taken outside LV or Prada.

    Awesome commercial gallery close to Il Duomo. Many luxury shops inside and expensive restaurants inside. Superb decoration and mosaica, the interior looks like a palace.

    Right next to the Duomo, why wouldn’t you walk through to see the beauty? You’ll see Italian cities represented on the floor. Spin three times on the bull’s balls (Turin) for good luck.

    Very nice shopping in a outstanding galleria. This is what they should look like:-) Stylish and classy. The pub at the entrance facing Duomo has original furniture. Take the metro, park far away.

    the Galleria is named after Vittorio Emanuele II, the first king of the Kingdom of Italy. It was designed in 1861 and built by Giuseppe Mengoni between 1865 and 1877.

    The Galleria is a favourite meeting place for the people of Milan, who can choose from classic restaurant Savini, the "Camparino" or "Zucca" bar on the Piazza Duomo side, Gucci's bar Read more

    Milanese people have a tradition; go in the middle of the gallery, on the left side on the floor is a bull, make 3 rounds of yourself on your heel on it's testicles, it will bring you luck! :)

    Beautiful architecture. There were a lot of students with sketchpads drawing. I tried to stand still so they would draw me but apparently I'm "not a building" and am "in the way."

    Some impressive architecture adorned with statues and paintings. The shops are less interesting to casual passers by.

    Lovely to go around. Just to go around and take pictures, if you don't have millions of euros. Btw, don't eta here. You will just spend lots and not get actual great food

    When you're next to the Duomo, check out the Galleria. Lots of shopping an some of the best people watching ever. It's the Rodeo Drive of Milan!

    If you wish to return to Milan, the tradition suggests that you have a spin with your heel on the mosaic bulls “attributes” on the pavement of the Galleria http://tinyurl.com/bv7uoxq

    If you want to do some very expensive shopping, this is the place to come, but if not, it's just a large scale shopping centre with very few shops.

    Aside from the serious (and expensive) shopping, this place is also home to fancy and established cafés. Go to Zucca/Caffé Miani, where you'll get your coffee and the famous rhubarb-based Zucca.

    The Galleria is awesome! Great stores but service is not up to the standards we are used to (at least during the summer when thousands of people come inside).

    By eating in Savini restaurant within the galleria, you might have some moments of heaven. Check out the shop below also to cook heaven at home.
