Milan is located in Northern Italy in the region of Lombardy.
In the summer months, like any other city in Italy, you can expect to see a larger crowd of tourists. However, it is not as busy as Venice or Florence.
Milan is known for its modernity and fashion-forward style, while Rome is celebrated for its ancient monuments and artwork.
The main airport for Milan is Malpensa International Airport (MXP), which is located about 40 kilometres from the city centre. There's a train that takes you directly into the city center.
