Under the Republic of Venice in the 16th century, Bergamo bordered between the powerful cities of Milan and Venice and was fortified with a mighty wall extending more than five kilometres.

Still very much intact with four huge gates, this splendid city wall offers a pleasant and popular stroll with panoramic views over the lower city, the plains and the mountains beyond.
