The Lombardy region, which includes the fashionable city of Milan, dominates north-central Italy. You will find countless national monuments here along with a handful of UNESCO World Heritage Sites, impressive cathedrals, Leonardo da Vinci's The Last Supper, and — oh, yes — some of the best shopping and most stunning scenery that Italy has to offer. Even the celebrities flock to this part of Italy, with no less than megastar George Clooney owning a fifteen-bedroom villa on Lake Como. Sounds like a region worth seeing at least once in your life, no?
