Bergamo Città Alta: perched on a hill and surrounded by walls, it retains the layout of its ancient streets and the medieval and Renaissance atmosphere evoked by Piazza Vecchia and Piazza del Duomo.

A land devoted to viticulture since time immemorial which, in the stones of its abbeys, towers and castles, tells of the unchanged charm of time.

Perched on a hill and surrounded by walls, it still retains the layout of its ancient streets and the medieval and Renaissance atmosphere evoked by Piazza Vecchia and Piazza del Duomo. The Palazzo della Ragione and Santa Maria Maggiore harken back to the municipal period, while the Colleoni Chapel, built to house the Mausoleum of the Condottiero and his daughter, brings Renaissance elegance to life.
