I spend a long weekend in Italy at the end of October. The weather was pretty bad. The funny thing is that my mum traveled to Bergamo one week before me and she had a perfect weather. During my stay, it was raining every day. Unfortunately now the situation is really bad for instance in Venice or Sicily.
It was actually my second time in Bergamo. First time I went there 8 years ago when I traveled quite a lot in Italy after I finished my job as a babysitter. Bergamo was one my lasts stop during 1 month of traveling.
Funny story
At the airport I´ve met my exboyfriend Matus. I totally didn´t see him when he suprised me and gave me a hug. I had no idea that he is going to be there. So I almost had a infarct. No, I´m kidding. But I was a bit shocked and screamed across the whole airport.

Did you know that
... the historical part is called La Città Alta, which is the part on the hill
... you can get there by cable car
... the new part of the city called La Città Bassa - below the La Città Alta
... there is the airport with low cost companies, mainly Ryanair
... huge shopping centre practically in the airport area
... traditional meal - casoncelli (pasta filled with meat, cheese and herbs.)
... university town

I can´t leave Italy without proper gelato.

I definitely recommend you to make a quick stop here. Bergamo - La Città Alta is worth it. Also, most of people skip it so it is not that tourist.
All you need is a good friend.
