Then let us show you the best hotels, cafés and places to break a sweat, not to mention takehomes to please even the fussiest of souvenir hunters.

Monocle

The Monocle Travel Guide, Milan

£15

Few things will be handed to you on a plate in Milan - except, perhaps, a generous portion of rich and creamy risotto con ossobuco. The Lombard capital has an enviable wealth of restaurants, shops and galleries but the best are often hard to find.

Issue 140

£11

Monocle's get-up-and-go February issue highlights 50 ways to hit play after 12-months of pauses. We sit down with the Greek PM to talk about kickstarting a national brand, do a little disaster planning in Helsinki and highlight the businesses to benchmark from Tokyo to Toronto. Readers can also count on a raft of recommendations, recipes, makers and shaker-uppers – and even an imagined Monocle kibbutz. It's time to press on.
