Valentine’s Day Romance in Milan
14 February is Valentine’s day
Romantic restaurants, enchanting city scenery, and charming hotels will make Milan your perfect Valentine getaway.
Milan has a particular romance to it. It’s not seen or depicted as a romantic city in films or art, but it will surprise you. For example, the cobblestone streets of Brera after a rainfall, the shopping district lit up at night after hours, and there are lots of intimate bistros and wine bars where lovers can sit close and enjoy an evening. Here are some of our suggestions:
ROMANCE IN THE CITY OF MILAN

Piazza San Fedele, statue of Manzoni
Piazza San Fedele
Found between Piazza Duomo and Via Manzoni, Piazza San Fedele has become a traditional lovers’ meeting place.
It is not uncommon to see young lovers kissing on the stone benches near the statue of Alessandro Manzoni, author of Italian literary masterpiece “I Promessi Sposi” -“The Betrothed“, a dramatic story of two lovers set in 1628, a time of war, famine, and plague.
Brera- via Fiori Chiari and via Fiori Scuri
One of Milan’s most intimate and antique areas of the city. In the evenings, artist show their works, fortune tellers predict your future and there are many wine bars and small restaurants to enjoy a romantic dinner or drink.

Museo Castello Sforzesco (Sforza Castle) Milan
Castello Sforzesco
With the castle lit up at night, an evening stroll hand-in-hand around the castle garden and courtyard is memorable.

On a clear day you will have a spectacular view of the city and even of the Alps by climbing to the top of the Duomo cathedral via a spiral stone staircase of 919 steps. An elevator to the top is also available. Tickets and entrance to both the staircase and the elevator are on Corso Vittorio Emanuele (the left side of the Duomo if you are looking at it straight on).
