Some information about Bergamo

Bergamo lies in the Alpine foothills, upon the original Venetian fortifications. Citta Alta (Upper Town which is also the Old Town) is set 900 feet above seal level. About half a mile downhill lies the New Town with many 19th and early 20th century buildings. At the heart of Upper Town is Piazza Vecchia, and offers narrow streets, old squares, historical monuments, and medieval architecture. Attractions include a 12th century, Romanesque style, the Basilica di Santa Maria Maggiore. Traveling downhill towards the Lower Town, you will find the Galleria Dell'Accademia Carrara located in Piazza Giacomo Carrara, which is filled with art works of Venetian and Tuscan masters such as Botticelli, Bellini, Mantegna and Carpaccio. You can expect to taste a unique and wide variety of dishes including baby partridge cooked in grappa, calves' brains with grapes, and fillet of sea bass with olive oil.
