The city of Bergamo is composed of an old walled core, known as Città Alta ("Upper Town"), nestled within a system of hills constituting a regional park, and the modern expansion in the plains below. The upper town is encircled by massive Venetian defensive systems that are a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 9 July 2017.

The old town of Bergamo, where Citta' alta is an architectural jewel and a magnificent example of a fortified city. It is possible to climb there by bike for the most motivated, however, the easiest way to visit is to walk there. There are many things to see, including churches and the basilica, the city museum which you can climb up to get a view of the whole area and art museums, lots of shops and restaurants (and, overall, quite a few "tourist traps" and some really authentic stalls and grocery stores). Take the time, over the day or over several days, to discover the city and enjoy its special atmosphere.

The historic center of Bergamo is a small favor in which it is worth stopping to visit the basilica of Santa Maria Maggiore, the Colleoni chapel and the Venetian walls.
