Milan is worldwide recognized as productive and economic capital of the country and the largest center for services, finance, fashion, publishing and industry. This potential has an ancient history, full of enchanting sceneries, culture and art. Brera is the artistically exclusive area of the city: cafés in the open air, elegant furnishings shops, boutiques of hand tailored clothes, create a artists' Paris-like atmosphere. Among the '700s palaces of this area,, stands the Pinacoteca, with works of art ranging from the XIV to the XX centuries by important artists such as Piero della Francesca, Raffaello, Mantegna, Bramante, Caravaggio. Behind the Sforza Castle there is Sempione Park, a wide green area with small lakes, meadows, woods and little bridges. It contains several monuments such as the Napoleonic Arenate Tower designed by Giò Ponti and the Triennale of Milan. Ahead, on one of "piazza Duomo", stands the huge portal of the Vittorio Veneto Gallery, also known as "Milan's parlour", with its ancient cafés, restaurants, boutiques and ancient bookshops. Close to the Cathedral, there is the picturesque and ancient Merchant's Square with its historical buildings representing Milan cultural life from Middle Ages to the '700s: the Palace of Ragione of 1200, the Osii Loggia, the XVII century Palace of the Palatine Schools and, at the beginning of Merchant Street, the Palace of Giureconsulti. Towards Porta Venezia there are the beautiful XVIII century gardens which host rare botanic species as well as monuments dedicated to famous protagonists of the Italian history. The religious history, too, has left its mark in these places. Besides the imposing Lombard-Gothic Cathedral, other Basilicas show their invaluable beauty and value, such as S.Ambogio's, the most ancient of Milan, built in 379 a.C., S.Eustorgio's, S.Lorenzo Maggiore's and S.Maria delle Grazie's. Milan also offers a large series of museums and theatres, the most ancient of which is the Pinacoteca Ambrosiana of 1609, exhibiting masterpieces of artists such as Caravaggio, Leonardo da Vinci, Raffaello and Botticelli; then the La Scala Theatre Museum (dedicated to the works of the famous theatre), the Science and Technique Museum and the Risorgimento Museum. Leaving the centre, we find the Navigli, which date back to 1100 and which, towards the end of 1300, were opened to navigation from the River Ticino to downtown in order to transport the marble which was used to build the Cathedral.

Bergamo is one of the most picturesque areas of Lombardy, famous for its subdivision on two levels: the spacious and modern lower part of the city and the renowned "Città Alta", a real historic and artistic gem which owes its splendor to its age-old Venetian buildings. The dedicated work of man and a friendly and generous nature have produced great results in this land. On one side Bergamo is an artistic province, rich of architectural masterpieces like Piazza Vecchia and the old basilica of Santa Maria Maggiore or Colleoni Chapel, in the Upper town. On the other side it is a modern and dynamic town, which perfectly expresses the capacity of combining man's talent and the nature's beauties. For example, since Roman times, the thermal baths and the mud of San Pellegrino Terme, Sant'Omobono, Trescore Balneario, have been used for different kinds of care and treatment. Nature, history and man's talent are also visible in the numerous medieval structures that were built for the strategic importance that these places had in the past. The Fortress of Bergamo, built on the hillock of S. Eufemia in the XIV century, the Castle of Gorle dating back to 1200, or the Castle of Castelli Calepino, imposing fortress of 1400, are only a small portion of the monuments that made the history of the entire region. A history that was also characterized by a constant religious and spiritual dimension, which originated one of Italy's richest historical, artistic and cultural heritages. In the entire province of Bergamo there are one hundred and six sanctuaries dedicated to the Blessed Virgin Mary, and the numerous visitors that still today go to visit the small centre of Sotto il Monte, birthplace of Pope John XXIII.
