One of the proudest, most passionate football nations in the world, Italy’s Stadio Giuseppe Meazza is cited as the latter day equivalent to the Coliseum of Rome. More commonly known as the San Siro, the stadium is home to two of Europe’s biggest teams, AC Milan and Internazionale. Fierce rivals, both have glorious pasts that include European domination as well as domestic accomplishments.

The San Siro museum tells the histories of both clubs in shirts, trophies and memorabilia. It even has life-size models of some of the greatest players to have graced the San Siro turf. Guided tours will take you round the 86,000 capacity ground and if you are lucky enough you might visit during the weekend of the local derby between the two teams, meaning an electrifying atmosphere surging through the city.
