Hi Yorkie
obviously isn't so
the fact is that my shots were taken outside the areas frequented by typical tourists.
Here, the 10 Milan's top tourist attractions
1) Piazza Duomo (Cathedral square) and nearby areas,
2) Castello Sforzesco (Sforza castle),
3) Il Quadrilatero della Moda (Fashion District) Quadrilateral with the sides formed by the roads: Via MonteNapoleone, Via Manzoni, Via della Spiga and Corso Venezia. For high-price shopping
4) Leonardo Da Vinci – The Last's Supper mural painting (1494-1497) in the church of Santa Maria delle Grazie
5) La Scala operahouse
6) The Navigli (system of canals partially navigable) known especially by Italian tourists.

7) Brera district famous for romantic restaurants and bars and for antique shops, and also for its artistic and cultural attractions, such Academy of Fine Arts and the Brera Art Gallery,
8) ….San Siro stadium
9) Business congress tourism (International meeting. and General conferences) with numerous conferences and much frequented but in August conferences are temporarily suspended and therefore, no conference-partecipants around the streets
10) Basilica of Sant'Ambrogio, One of the most ancient churches in Milan

Outside of these destinations, Milan, unfortunately, doesn't offer many choices for typical tourist who travels to Milan in group. Normally they followed maps showing the known usual places
the Milanese go away and there are no tourists in these areas
So .... this explains the empty streets. ..In August,
and only in August.
Because in the rest of the year, traffic is usually so..
