Upper City of Bergamo

Visit the monumental city at night, when it is well lit, because at that time it has a special appeal. Although Bergamo suffers from poor lighting in many buildings, it is still gorgeous and very lively in its older part. Behind the Piazza Vecchia, and once you have seen the magnificent library building, pass by Palazzo del Podesta and you will arrive to the small Piazza del Duomo, a jewel. The Cathedral of Santa Maria Maggiore, Coleoni Chapel and the Baptistery are also a couple of architectural marvel.
