New Year in Milan

New Year in Milan

The main tradition of Italians, which they sacredly honor on the New Year, is to throw out everything old and worn out from the house. This frees up space for new feelings, fresh thoughts and positive feelings. Therefore, the New Year in Milan or Rome, Florence or Venice can be an excellent reason to start a good tradition of traveling during the winter holidays..

Head of the year and everything for the people

New Year's Eve on the Apennine Peninsula is called Capodanno, which translates as "head of the year." During these hours, Italians indulge in unbridled fun and involve guests and tourists in this process. The main events usually take place in the central city square. In Milan, this is the Piazza Duomo, which is crowned by the majestic Cathedral.
The main Catholic church in Milan was built for over 500 years. The first stone on the site of the grand Duomo was laid at the end of the 14th century, and today the majestic building in the style of "flaming Gothic" occupies the fifth line in the ranking of the largest churches in the world. It has 3400 statues, the view from its roof is the most impressive in the area, and its main attraction is the golden sculpture of the patroness of the city.

Red lace

Milan bears the unofficial name of one of the capitals of the world fashion industry. Fashionists from all over the world strive to celebrate the New Year in Milan, because it is during the Christmas weeks that the famous sales are organized in the city. Buying clothes, shoes and accessories of the best brands at beautiful prices is the cherished dream of thousands of people, and therefore it is worth taking care of booking winter tours to Italy in advance..
Italians believe that New Year's Eve is a great excuse to put on new and expensive underwear. It should be lace and red, symbolizing passion and love. Then, in their opinion, the remaining days of the year will pass with a twinkle even in toilets of other colors..
