Bergamo
in collaboration with Turismo Bergamo
In the Alpine foothills, just 50 km from Milan, Bergamo is the most striking city in Lombardy.
Structured in two levels, the lower city is more modern and dynamic, whilst the famous upper
city boasts a stunning historic centre full of monuments and works of art. In the area around the
city the Iseo Lake is well worth a visit, as is the sanctuary at Caravaggio and Crespi dAdda the
most important company town in Italy, listed as a world heritage site by UNESCO.
