Don't go on a Sunday if you're into shopping. Everything will be closed.

Some nice areas around the place, but if you're not into the fashion scene its just another european city... not really much to do there.

IMHO Rome has it all, no matter where you stay as soon as you step out onto the street you're in a living and breathing museum... Best city on earth, apart from LEEDS of course.

Well said GJ.

Maybe been a bit harsh on Flo, it was more that it didn't live upto my expectations as some people had told me it was better than Rome. Infact people I talk to are pretty divided about which they prefer. I just felt it was a tourist trap as a lot of Rome is, but at least there you can find 'your own corner' away from the crowds.

Going to Milan to see the Last supper and do some shopping, not expecting much else apart from risotto and a couple of bars.

Stopping off at Milan for a few nights on my way way to Rome next month.

Any tips, mainly night life and over 30 friendly clubs would be good

I hear Milan is more like West Berlin than Rome, only less friendly! Enjoy Rome.
