Its location makes it rich in vantage points.
On the one hand you can enjoy a view as far as the eye can see over the plain and on the other a special view of Città Alta, here its many towers, bell towers and domes will appear ringed in a succession that will take your breath away.
This corner of Bergamo is truly a small oasis of peace and romance in which to stop and contemplate the view without being disturbed by traffic and stroll through the narrow historic streets.
It was in one of these that the famous Bergamasque composer Gaetano Donizetti was born.
Indeed, here you can visit the birthplace of the musician, known worldwide for his operatic compositions, now transformed into an intimate museum that collects numerous testimonies of this illustrious Bergamascan and will also be able to immerse you in the everyday life of a 19th-century middle-class family.
From the very same century is the funicular railway!
At the end of the day, we recommend that you treat yourself to the experience of a ride on this vehicle, which is located at the entrance to Borgo Canale and will take you to the San Vigilio hill.
Here you can enjoy an aperitif while the view is ignited by the warm light of sunset and Bergamo slowly turns on its lights.
