Last of Bergamo

13 Aug

Here are the last set of pictures from our time in Bergamo.  I didn’t mention in the last blog that at the highest point of Bergamo there are the remains of the castle that once stood guard over the town.  We made it to the top just as the weather began to change and had to wait out some rain under an ancient rose bush for a little while.  While we were at the castle my brother found some graffiti that he is certain was done by Banksy however there is no way to be completely sure.

We walked our way down instead of using a bus or cable car and found a number of secluded stairways and ramps that were nice because they kept us off the main road and away from traffic.  Like I said in the last blog on Bergamo; this is one of my favorite towns for a day trip or two in all of northern Italy and highly suggest making it a stop to anyone who has the chance.
