Città dei Mille" or "City of the Thousand", these are the other ways as to referring to the city of Bergamo. Situated in Lombardy, Italy, the city is about 25 miles northeast of Milan and 19 miles from the lakes Como and Iseo, not to mention that the foothills of the Bergamo Alps begin immediately north of the town. This city preserved his historical sites very well, despite the destruction brought by the World War II and the urbanization. The old and the new of this world combine into one holiday destination, and that is the city of Bergamo.

Here you will have the opportunity to see the most beautiful sights of the Lower City.

The possibilities here are endless, you can either drive to the southern leg of Como, and then back on the other side of the leg, or choose to take your car on the ferry from Bellagio to Varenna.
