Visit the area of Brera in the evening. You will find a lot of nice pubs and restaurants. If the weather is fine you will find fortune tellers in the street who will read your future from your hand and via the cards. Good for meeting people. Look around and see how people behave.(movements and talking)
You will learn a lot about the italian mentality looking to the peoples behaviour.
Italian hospitality
by draguza
I have noticed that compared to people from other countries, Italians are very friendly and helpful with foreigners, so if you ever get lost or need to ask for directions, do not hesitate to ask the locals for help, if they can they will be willing to help you
Palazzo Melzi di Cusano
by Diana75
With a Ionic style portal and austere column facade, Palazzo Melzi di Cusano was built in 1830 according to the plans of the architect Gian Battista Bareggi.
This is one of the most elegant palaces in Milan with a central part similar to Palazzo Serbelloni.
Best discotec in Milan
by Henrik_rrb about Casablanca
... Casablanca. As Hollywood (see above) this place is very famous, but unlike Hollywood this place is really great! Costs a lot to get inside (at least 13 euro) but it's goes faster to get inside, the music is better, the people and the atmosphere is more nice, the girls are beautiful and if you don't want to see any drugs you don't have too... Total opposit to Hollywood that is...
The dancefloor is big, and if you're there early in the night you will probably also find a place to sit down if you prefer that. 10 euro for a beer/drink all night long, closes a 3 a clock in the morning. Afterwards you might think it's a good idea to spend another two hours at Hollywood, but please... GO HOME instead... :-)
Update september 2006: Casablanca is no more... :(( The whole place is destroyed, taken down and carried away. Instead there will be some kind of fashion center at the location, finished in a few years time.
So no more late nights there, never again will I kiss a girl there, never again will I attend a wedding party there, never again will I make a striptease there, never again will I snub a supermodel there (and thank God for that...).
So many great memories, will try to keep them deep in my heart!
On the other side, the staff is said to have been transfered to a new club, simply called the Club, some chilometers away. Guess I can perform the next striptease there...? :D Fancy disco, so dress up good anc nice. Easier for guys to get inside quickly if you come there with a couple of girls.
By Train

Milan has the major railway system in Northern Italy, at the center of important national and international lines. The main station is Milano Centrale, which is very near to the center of the city. From here trains leave for all parts of Italy and so do international connections to France, Switzerland, and Germany.
The station of Milano Cadorna serves the Malpensa Express for the airport and the FNM regional direct trains to the north of Milan.For times please consult the Trenitalia site or call the green number 89 20 21
