Q: Where are the best and biggest shopping centres and shopping malls in Milan that I can get to for indoor shopping? The weather is cold and wet outside. I don't want to go walking outside on any of Milan's many famous shopping streets .

Getting around Milan by public transport - everything you need to know: Bus, Tram and Metro Network of Milan run by ATM Milan's public transportation network is extensive, efficient, frequent and affordable - something which Milanese expect, demand and use in their daily lives. There is hardly any place within the city of Milan, that is not reachable for the tourist by public transport. Milan's Metro system, the trams and city buses are all managed by Milan's public municipal authority for transport, ATM (Azienda Trasporti Milanesi - Milan Transport Corporation) .
