The rising value of the Euro has made our intended venue at Genoa
very expensive, so the 59th Vehicular Technology Conference has
been moved to the neighboring city and the following week. VTC2004-Spring
will now take place in the Milan
Marriott from 17 to 19 May 2004.

Milan has many attractions - the impressive Duomo, a
Gothic cathedral which took 500 years to complete, the 19th
century 'shopping mall' Galleria Vittorio Emanuelle, or
even the National
Museum of Science and Technology, with its permanent
Leonardo da Vinci exhibits. The city also hosts Leonardo's
Last Supper, in the church of Santa Maria della Grazie,
along with many art galleries. |
Milan is easy to get to. The main international airport is Malpensa,
with a direct train link into the city center, and the city is
also served by Linate
and Bergamo airports. A comprehensive bus
and tram network, supplemented by 3 metro lines, provide an
integrated public transport service. A single €1 ticket lasts
75 minutes and can be used on the subway (once) and buses and
trams.

A map showing the Marriott (centered in the circle on the Via
Giorgio Washington) can be found here.
The railway station for trains from Malpensa is just off the top
right of the map, and is 20-25 minutes walk from the hotel. The
Duomo is slightly further in the same general direction. Use the
compass at the bottom to navigate Go
