Another district that is famous for its exhibitions and trade fairs is Amendola-Fiera; this is a residential area as well, with many tree-lined streets and tall palazzi, most of which were constructed after 1930 and are still in good condition. The neighborhood is dominated by the Fiera (Fair) and the exhibition space associated with it. There always seems to be something going on at the exhibition centre, so be sure to check the schedule of the Fiera di Milano before visiting the area. Review © 2007, Wcities |

A veritable symphony |
61 Corso Vercelli Milan, Milan 20144 Italy +39 2 498 7897 |
This hotel is at the end of Corso Vercelli, near the Fiera di Milano. It has an internal garden that looks onto Piazza Piemonte. It is rather small and recreates the atmosphere of a private home. The rooms have all the modern comforts and are furnished in an elegant, traditional style. The surrounding area is crowded with bars, restaurants and shops for all needs, including pizzerias, Chinese, Japanese, traditional and fast food restaurants. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Corso Magenta leads through the Magenta district into the city centre. This corso is 'healthy and wealthy'. One half has hardly any shops, but many gorgeous palazzi with exquisite, hidden gardens, while the other half has a multitude of shops, some of which are very prestigious. The corso is well served by public transport, so make use of it, as it has lots of traffic and few parking spaces during the day. The area becomes a great deal more peaceful at night-time and offers many attractive cafés for a drink or a meal. Review © 2007, Wcities |
