Lombardy Italy Travel Articles
The northern region of Lombardy is one of Italy’s richest and
most densely populated regions. Milan,
the region’s capital, is a world-class center of finance and
fashion, as well as the site of such famous monuments as Teatro La Scala,
the famed opera house; Da Vinci’s The Last Supper;
and the Duomo,
one of the world’s largest gothic cathedrals. But Lombardy

towns such as Mantua
and Cremona.

deserves a visit. Just north of Milan are the Italian
Lakes offering the perfect
