Brera, Historical district in Milan, Italy.
The neighborhood features narrow cobblestone streets lined with residential buildings adorned by balconies filled with plants and flowers throughout the year.

The Pinacoteca di Brera museum houses an extensive collection of Italian paintings, including works by Raphael, Caravaggio, and other master artists.
The district connects to central Milan through three metro lines M1, M2, and M3, with multiple bus and tram stops throughout the area.
