Italy 🇮🇹 Bergamo | Medieval retro and modern 🏟 I started to work in Italy more than 10 years ago. 🎄 Every time I come to Italy, there will be different "surprise" 🏖. The biggest surprise this time is to come to Bergamo Bergamo, very close to Milan 30 minutes drive. 🎡 Bergamo is one of the most perfect cities for the combination of history and modernity. Economically, it is Italy's third largest economic zone. The transportation is extremely convenient, with Italy's third-ranked airport, and the economic and economic strength per capita is very strong. 🏔 The location is very convenient, it is basically an affiliated city of Milan International City, the medieval architecture and its rich and exquisite. There is also a UNESCO SITE World UNESCO World Heritage Site. The old city wall in the upper city. Like the Great Wall of China, built to defend the enemy at the beginning, now it has become a Bergamo trip. I think I have to leave at least some time to slowly experience the city. I also recommend a few routes worth going to. 1️⃣ The most worth visiting place in the old city of Upper City 🌍 Bergamo Middle Ages and Renaissance buildings gather tightly on the top of the rocky outcrop. The best way to get there is to take the cableway cable car to the Plaza de Maccato. Below is Dipata, standing in the beautiful church of San Michele and San Andrea. The streets of Gambitto Road are surrounded by noble buildings and small shops on the streets leading to the beautiful Plaza de Chia. Or on foot, you can slowly taste the city, the beauty and food everywhere. 2️⃣ The richly built Kia Plaza🎄 is located in the heart of the old town, an extraordinary and beautiful noble house and town hall. The stone steps and three Gothic arches of the 12th century Laguna Palace form the upper part of the square, adjacent to the towering tower Torredel. Below the new palace of the late Renaissance, there is a municipal library. In the center stands the fountain of Condalini decorated by lions, and another St. Mark's lion looks down from above. 3️⃣ St. Mary's Cathedral ⛪️ The arch at the top of Kia Square is the Cathedral Square, which together contains some of Bergamo's most impressive architectural gems. The entrances on both sides of the Church of Santa Maria Maggiore are guarded by lions under beautiful Gothic canopy. Inside are exquisite Renaissance choir stalls, baroque plasterworks, and 16th-century tapestries on side aisles and choir walls. Local admirers still leave flowers on the tomb of composer Donizetti, a Bergamo buried here.4 ️⃣ more than 4 km of fences built by Quintamuria and the Venetian in the gate area surround the old city, known as Quintamuria. 🏖 People near the Donizetti Museum followed them, passing through San Giacomo, the most handsome gate in town, and passing through the Church of San Austin to the port of Sant'Agistino. From this gate, Viale Nuelle II descends through the lower station of the cable car and into the center of the lower city. 5️⃣ Oni Chapel is adjacent to Notre Dame Cathedral, which has an early Renaissance style of Lombardy and a colorful marble-insulated exterior. Built between 1470 and 1876 to house the tomb of Kodoromi Okoloni and his daughter Medea, the church was designed by Giovanni Amadeo, who also designed the interior tomb. 【Attraction Guide】📍 Detailed address: Up downtown Shangcheng District 🚗 Traffic Guide: Train to Bergamo and then choose self-driving car, BuS🕙 Open time: no time limit 💰 Ticket price: no tickets.
