24 hours in Milan. Its charm is understated, but what it lacks in romantic atmosphere it makes up in a sort of practical realness. The locals definitely overwhelm the tourists here (sparser during this time of the year), as they went about their workday. I liked nothing more than to just people watch-- and indeed, black leather jackets are ubiquitous. The Duomo, a Gothic cathedral built in a variety of differing styles, stands at the heart of the busy city.
