Bergamo (Bèrghem in
dialetto bergamasco) è un comune, capoluogo della
provincia omonima, delimitato da colli sul lato settentrionale. La città
si divide in due parti distinte, la "città bassa" e la "città alta".
Indice[nascondi] |
Statua del 1884 di Vittorio Emanuele II
Bergamo alta (detta anche "città alta" o, in passato, "la città", in contrapposizione ai "borghi") è una città medioevale, circondata da mura erette nel XVII secolo, durante la dominazione veneziana.
La parte più conosciuta e frequentata di Bergamo alta è Piazza Vecchia, con una fontana del Contarini, il Palazzo della Ragione, la Torre Civica (detta il Campanone), che ancora oggi alle ore 22 scocca 130 colpi - quelli che in passato annunciavano la chiusura notturna dei portoni delle mura - e altri palazzi che la circondano su tutti i lati. Imponente, sul lato opposto al Palazzo della Ragione, il grande edificio bianco della Biblioteca Storica "Angelo Mai".
Sul lato sud di Piazza Vecchia si trovano il Duomo, la Cappella Colleoni dell'architetto Giovanni Antonio Amadeo con il monumento funebre al condottiero Bartolomeo Colleoni, il Battistero e la chiesa di Santa Maria Maggiore. Quest'ultima chiesa cittadina, non della diocesi, all'interno reca i segni architettonici dei vari periodi che si sono susseguiti nella storia cittadina dall'epoca della sua costruzione. Degni di nota gli intarsi raffiguranti scene bibliche realizzate in legni di vari colori, i cui disegni sono attribuiti a Lorenzo Lotto, e un imponente confessionale barocco scolpito da Andrea Fantoni. La chiesa ospita la tomba del musicista Gaetano Donizetti
Piazza Vecchia e biblioteca Angelo Mai
Via Colleoni collega Piazza Vecchia a Piazza della Cittadella ed è il cuore commerciale di città alta.
In Piazza della Cittadella si trovano il Museo civico archeologico ed il Museo "Enrico Caffi" di scienze naturali.
Città alta oltre a ospitare un Giardino Botanico sito in via Colle Aperto è anche sede di una rinomata facolta di Lingue e Letterature straniere il cui prestigio è riconosciuto in ambito europeo.
Città alta si può raggiungere a piedi attraverso gli scorlazzini (scalinate che da più punti la collegano alla parte bassa della città), in automobile (anche se in certi periodi dell'anno è vietato durante i fine settimana), con la funicolare o con l'autobus.
L'Accademia Carrara, sede di una importante pinacoteca
Bergamo bassa (in passato, detta anche "i borghi") è sede del Comune, della Prefettura e della Provincia. Il suo centro è la zona compresa tra Porta Nuova ed il Sentierone - viale pavimentato che nei secoli scorsi era la stazione delle carrozze trainate da cavalli.
L'arteria principale di Bergamo bassa è viale Papa Giovanni XXIII, che va dalla stazione ferroviaria a Porta Nuova.
Sul Sentierone si affaccia il principale teatro cittadino, di proprietà dell'amministrazione Comunale, intitolato a Gaetano Donizetti. Degno di nota, nella zona, è il monumento al partigiano di Giacomo Manzù.
Nella zona settentrionale della città bassa si trova l'Accademia Carrara (fondata dal conte Giacomo Carrara nel 1796), sede di esposizioni artistiche. Una delle ultime ad aver avuto risonanza nazionale è stata quella dedicata alle opere di Lorenzo Lotto.
Altri musei di Bergamo sono la casa di Donizetti, il Museo Donizettiano, la Galleria d'Arte Moderna e Contemporanea, il Museo Diocesano d'Arte Sacra e il Museo Storico.
Bergamo ospita uno stadio comunale, base della locale squadra di calcio, l'Atalanta Bergamasca Calcio, un palazzetto dello sport ed un impianto di piscine comunali.
Sono presenti numerose biblioteche, tra le quali spicca la nuova Biblioteca civica "A. Tiraboschi" situata in via San Bernardino 74.
Oltre al centro cittadino, nella parte bassa si trovano i quartieri di Redona, Borgo Santa Caterina, Valtesse, Borgo Palazzo, Loreto, Longuelo, Malpensata, Boccaleone, Colognola, Campagnola e Grumellina. Molti di questi erano frazioni distinte prima che l'espansione urbana degli anni '60 e '70 li inglobasse nella città.
Strada verso Bergamo alta
Porta Nuova & Città alta
Funicolare tra Bergamo alta e bassa
Dalla stazione ferroviaria partono treni per Milano, via Treviglio e via Carnate, per Brescia, per Lecco e per Cremona. Accanto ad essa, una stazione di autolinee è punto di partenza e arrivo per gli autobus che collegano il capoluogo alle diverse località della provincia.
Per quanto riguarda il traffico urbano, esiste una rete di autobus che collega i diversi quartieri della città ed i comuni vicini. Due linee di funicolare collegano infine città bassa (viale Vittorio Emanuele II) a città alta (piazza Mercato delle Scarpe) e città alta (porta S. Alessandro) con il colle di S. Vigilio.
Bergamo è servita dall'aeroporto di Bergamo-Orio al Serio, da cui partono frequenti collegamenti con numerose città d'Italia e d'Europa, e che rappresenta il terzo polo aereoportuale di Milano.
Bergamo è circondata su tre lati (ovest, sud e - non ancora completamente realizzato, est) da un sistema di strade tangenziali da cui partono le strade provinciali e statali dirette verso le valli e verso i capoluoghi delle provincie confinanti.
Il Rondò delle Valli, altro nome del Largo Decorati al Valor Civile, è una rotatoria importante nel sistema viabilistico della città. Situato a nord-est, collega le strade statali e provinciali delle valli Seriana e Brembana con la circonvallazione che si snoda a sud del capoluogo, nonché col centro cittadino. Negli anni passati è stato affiancato da un sottopasso in direzione Val Brembana e da un cavalcavia in direzione Val Seriana. Nell'impegno della Provincia di Bergamo per la Val Brembana, sono stati stanziati 2.117.000 € dal 1999 al 2005 per il Rondò. [2].
Nelle ore di punta ed in occasione delle partite domestiche dell'Atalanta (per via della vicinanza allo stadio) il Rondò delle Valli è sede di traffico congestionato e code, dato che rappresenta un punto di convergenza obbligata per la grande maggioranza delle direttrici stradali che collegano il capoluogo con il nord e il nord-est della provincia.
È stata teatro di importanti manifestazioni di protesta della società bergamasca come volantinaggi, presidi, blocchi del traffico, che ben testimoniano il valore simbolico della rotatoria per la città.

In passato, nel comune di Bergamo avevano sede numerose industrie, ora quasi tutte trasferite nel circondario. Attualmente, le aziende principali residenti in città sono:

| Bergamo is divided in two parts with
quite a distinct atmosphere. The Città Alta is the old part of town, it has
small steep streets with old houses and many churches, the Città Bassa
brings you the fast paced Italian life of the industrialized north. Most travelers head for the Città Alta immediately. The main attractions are the Piazza Vecchia with its Renaissance buildings such as the Biblioteca Civica (1594) and the Palazzo della Ragione (1199). The Piazza del Duomo is just around the corner; the Duomo is well worth a visit and has a wonderful marble facade. There are a few other churches worth seeing such as the San Michele (13-th century) and the Sant'Andrea. The Porta Sant'Agostino is the main gate, built in the 16-th century to defend the city. Another interesting gate is the San Giacomo gate. _____Sights Edit This Torre Civica Torre Civica Andrew McGarrell Everywhere you go there is something to see. A castle, a fountain, the view and the buildings.

It's a central focusing point where you can go to see people, have an ice cream, an aperitif or dinner and sometimes even take in a puppet show or medieval dancing. The best square to experience is in Città Alta with the Contarini Fountain from 1780 in the center, the Civic Library and the Palazzo della Ragione from the 1400s. The Bell Tower rings 100 times at 10 o'clock at night, a custom that remains from the medieval times to warn the farmers to come in before the walled-city more.. type: Squares World66 rating: [rate it] Il Sentierone Edit This The Sentierone is to the right The Sentierone is to the right photo by: Andrew McGarrell Going off to the right of the center of the lower town, while looking at the upper town from Piazza Vittorio Emanuele is the huge walking street called Il Sentierone.

Many travel web sites have real estate on them. It makes sense. Sell everything you own and live abroad in order to make your money and life style go farther - or just buy that second house. Need just one month? Rent a house! What a better way to see the world! Movie actors buy villas on the Lake of Como which is just over 30 minutes away. A few hours farther away in Tuscany there are foreigners galore who enjoy the sunny Italian life there. What a better place to have that home than in the Bergamo area. It's within only around 2 and 1/2 hours to Switzerland, France, the Adriatic Sea or the Mediterranean Sea. And now that the airport at Orio al Serio has become international, it's just a hop to other countries, or even just back home. Local mountain chalets are from 50,000 euro and even less! Village apartments or houses in the area are the same or more, depending on what you have in mind - and in your pocket book! Have a look - to see for yourself - and think about new possibilities for traveling! Try the region of Lombardy.

And depending on the date, you may run into culture in the streets in the form of puppet shows, Carnivale parades, processions, dancing, music and performances. Sometimes there are so many events going on in this city of art that it becomes difficult to find a hotel. To find out what's going on when you are visiting, the public tourist information office can help you find the events you prefer most and then get you your hotel even if it means getting a place just slightly out of town (insist with the tourist information assistant to get you a hotel just out of town and directions how to get there), which means more or less 15 minutes away, and it's worth it. Especially since there are buses connecting most all locations now with the new city bus services. At night it's fun to just stroll up and down the main street either in Città Alta or in the Città Bassa. There are lots of Cafe Bars in Via Gombito in Città Alta and all around.

The Città Alta is the old part of town, it has small steep streets with old houses and many churches, the Città Bassa brings you the fast paced Italian life of the industrialized north. Most travelers head for the Città Alta immediately. The main attractions are the Piazza Vecchia with its Renaissance buildings such as the Biblioteca Civica (1594) and the Palazzo della Ragione (1199). The Piazza del Duomo is just around the corner; the Duomo is well worth a visit and has a wonderful marble facade. There are a few other churches worth seeing such as the San Michele (13-th century) and the Sant'Andrea. The Porta Sant'Agostino is the main gate, built in the 16-th century to defend the city. Another interesting gate is the San Giacomo gate. _______Sights Edit This Lion Column of the Duomo Lion Column of the Duomo Karen Brubaker Everywhere you go there is something to see.

Many travel web sites have real estate on them. It makes sense. Sell everything you own and live abroad in order to make your money and life style go farther - or just buy that second house. Need just one month? Rent a house! What a better way to see the world! Movie actors buy villas on the Lake of Como which is just over 30 minutes away. A few hours farther away in Tuscany there are foreigners galore who enjoy the sunny Italian life there. What a better place to have that home than in the Bergamo area. It's within only around 2 and 1/2 hours to Switzerland, France, the Adriatic Sea or the Mediterranean Sea. And now that the airport at Orio al Serio has become international, it's just a hop to other countries, or even just back home. Local mountain chalets are from 50,000 euro and even less! Village apartments or houses in the area are the same or more, depending on what you have in mind - and in your pocket book! Have a look - to see for yourself - and think about new possibilities for traveling! Try the region of Lombardy.

Sometimes there are so many events going on in this city of art that it becomes difficult to find a hotel. To find out what's going on when you are visiting, the public tourist information office can help you find the events you prefer most and then get you your hotel even if it means getting a place just slightly out of town (insist with the tourist information assistant to get you a hotel just out of town and directions how to get there), which means more or less 15 minutes away, and it's worth it. Especially since there are buses connecting most all locations now with the new city bus services. At night it's fun to just stroll up and down the main street either in Città Alta or in the Città Bassa. There are lots of Cafe Bars in Via Gombito in Città Alta and all around. For dancing and discoteques you may go out of town or, best of all, to the lakes or even Milan. Be sure to check out the festivals.
