★ ★ ★ ★ ★ One of the beautiful Venetian gateways into the upper town. A walk along the wall is a must to see them as well as the views from them. Parks galore to rest in. Fabulous.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Technically it’s a huge marble door with a nice road winding towards the old city. But that’s not the whole story here: you actually feel the thousands of ancient merchants, peasants, knights that walked on that cobblestone ramp, against those historical walls. It’s a door through history.
And if you are not interested in history, it’s a still a very nice walk.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ A must-visit place if you stop in Bergamo!!! This historical place will have you mesmerized with its beauty and simplicity. Whether you chose to take a bus, the Funiculare (EURO 1,30) or the stairs (scorlazzini) you are at the right place. At the very heart of it is Piazza Vecchia where you are surrounded by the stunning Palazzo della Ragione, Biblioteca Angelo Maj, Campanone and right next to it the beautiful Santa Maria Maggiore and the Duomo Sant Alessandro. With narrow cobbled streets, every turn you make is a hiden wonder to explore. The area is small and with walking shoes is much confortable to walk around. The restaurants are a bit pricey but you cannot put a price on the italian food and taste. A child-friendly area as there is a lot of space to run around. Beautiful by day and astonishing by night you can easily dive into a well-preserved historic site while enjoying the stunning view of Bergamo bassa. And dot't forget to see the solar clock under the Palazzo della Ragione. You will need to be walking almost on it to see it and it has a shape of a "long number 8" with zodiac signs all around. I have visited Citta Alta 3 times and I would recommend to visit it in the afternoon during spring and summer period.
