Bergamo is the main city of the homonymous province and is divided into two parts, the "Bergamo Bassa" (Lower Town) and the "Bergamo Alta" (Higher Town).
It is by extension, the fourth province of Lombardy and is situated at an altitude of 249 meters above sea level.
In Bergamo, winters are cold and summers hot. From November to March, the presence of fog is massive and in summer the weather becomes very humid. The months from October to April are the most rainy. In winter there are frequent snowfalls, the average temperature ranges from a minimum of -5 ° C to a maximum of 35 degrees in summer.
The origins of Bergamo dates back to the XI century B.C.
The Old Town Square is the symbol of Bergamo Alta, the Palazzo della Ragione, the tower, known as "the Campanone", and the old Domus Suardorum (XIV-XV), now the headquarters of the University.
The Basilica of St. Maria Maggiore, built in the XII century, is considered the most important monument of the city.
We also recommend taking a walk on the walls of the Cittą Alta, already existing in Roman times.
