Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II
SHOPPING ARCADE
So much more than a shopping arcade, this neoclassical gallery is a soaring iron-
and-glass structure known locally as
il salotto bueno -
the city's fine drawing
room. Shaped like a crucifix, it also marks the
passeggiata
(promenade) route
from Piazza del Duomo to Piazza di Marino and the doors of La Scala.
