"Surrounded by the 16th-century Venetian Walls, the medieval Città Alta is dominated by the Rocca di Bergamo fortress. Handsome piazzas house the arcaded Palazzo della Ragione, the Basilica of Santa Maria Maggiore with its gilded interior, and the intricate marble facade of the Cappella Colleoni. Narrow alleys are lined with upscale indie boutiques and delis, as well as centuries-old cafes, trattorias, and wine bars."
