Bergamo Alta , because height is really beauty !!!!!🤩❤️

We were recently a weekend in Bergamo Alta and we were in love! We stayed in a residence near Bergamo Alta (Accademia) and from there we were able to visit the walls (how beautiful green!) and old square with the wonderful Basilica and climbed the Campanone. A wonderful landscape of Bergamo from up there! We then visited the Palazzo del Podestà with an interactive exhibition. We had dinner at the renowned Circolino and Mimi’.., casoncelli and rabbit excellent! The following day we visited the Castle of Grumello and tasted an excellent wine produced on site! We were lucky because on Sunday there was the gathering of cars and historic motorcycles 🚗 in short, a city that impressed us for the history, the greenery, the hospitality of its citizens and the great food 😁 dear Bergamo , see you soon !!!!🌺
