🌟 Discover Bergamo, the hidden nugget near Milan! 🌟

Are you dreaming of Milan? Wait until you discover Bergamo, its discreet but equally charming neighbor, if not more so! In 2023, it's even been elected Italian Capital of Culture... and believe us, it's well-deserved. 😍

As soon as you arrive in Bergamo, it's love at first sight! Divided into two parts, Città Alta and Città Bassa, this city immerses you in a romantic, timeless atmosphere. Città Alta, perched on its hilltop, is an open-air museum. With its cobbled streets, ancient palaces and breathtaking panoramas, you'll feel as if you've stepped back in time. ⌛️

👉 Take the time to stroll around, discover secret little squares, and let yourself be carried away by the unique atmosphere of this hidden gem. And don't forget: Bergamo is the birthplace of Stracciatella! Yes, this delicious vanilla ice cream with chocolate chips was born here. So, you know what you have to do... 🍦✨But that's not all! The local specialties are to die for. Between golden polenta and casoncelli, the typical ravioli to be enjoyed without moderation, Bergamo will delight your taste buds. 😋

Looking for magical moments for two? Bergamo is the destination for quality time together. 💕 Imagine strolling hand in hand through picturesque alleyways, enjoying a romantic dinner on a terrace with a view, or sipping a glass of wine at sunset over the surrounding hills. A true daydream... 🌅

So, are you ready to explore this little Italian gem?
