Right next to the Duomo of Milan stands one of the most popular places in the city, the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II, a covered passage between the Duomo and the Teatro alla Scala, designed by the architect Giuseppe Mengoni and inaugurated in the 1860s.

This arcaded street which serves as a showcase and a walk to have an aperitif or dine after the Opera is the oldest shopping center in Italy, decorated with mosaics, caryatids, decorations that surround windows and balconies. Inside there are the shops of the most luxurious brands, but also historic restaurants and starred chefs.

In the center of the Gallery, on the mosaic floor, a bull is represented. There is a superstitious rite, which consists of turning the bull's testicles three times with the heel of the right foot to guarantee fertility or a return to Milan, or good luck for the new year.

Iconic gallery of the city of Milan. With a lot of history behind it, today it is a shopping center with the most renowned clothing brands in the world. It also has several places to eat and drink something

The Galleria is absolutely worth seeing for the architecture alone.
There are many mosaics worth seeing. We even found the Turin bull. The Taurus ritual is to stand on it and turn it in a circle three times, this is said to bring good luck and fertility.
