Bergamo
Northeast of Milan
Bergamo is a city in northern Italy, in the Lombardy region at the foot of the Alps.
The historic upper town (Città Alta) sits on a hill surrounded by Venetian walls, while the modern lower town spreads across the plain below.
We spent a day exploring Bergamo's medieval streets.
