The loggia of Piazza Luigi Angelini in Bergamo. Bergamo Alta, also known as Città Alta, is the historical and medieval part of Bergamo, located on a hill and surrounded by imposing Venetian walls, declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 2017. This area is famous for its cobbled streets, picturesque squares and breathtaking panoramic views.
Piazza Luigi Angelini is a hidden corner of Bergamo Alta, known for its loggia and quiet charm. The square is dedicated to Luigi Angelini, an engineer and architectural historian who played a crucial role in the redevelopment and preservation of the Città Alta in the 1930s. Luigi Angelini was tasked with improving the condition of the Città Alta while maintaining its historic character. His redevelopment plan included demolishing ruined buildings and creating new public spaces, such as walkways, gardens and markets. Piazza Luigi Angelini, formerly known as Piazza Verzeri, is an example of his work, with the loggia providing a quiet and picturesque passage away from the tourist traffic.
What to See in Bergamo Alta: Piazza Vecchia: the heart of the Upper Town, surrounded by historic buildings such as the Palazzo della Ragione and the Angelo Mai Civic Library. The Basilica of Santa Maria Maggiore: a splendid Romanesque church with richly decorated interiors. The Colleoni Chapel: a masterpiece of the Lombard Renaissance, located next to the basilica. The Campanone (Civic Tower): offers a panoramic view of the city and the surrounding mountains. The Castle of San Vigilio: located on an even higher hill, reachable by a funicular, it offers spectacular views and a peaceful atmosphere.
Bergamo Alta and Piazza Luigi Angelini offer a fascinating mix of history, culture and architectural beauty.

Il bel palazzo in piazzetta Ruggero ad Assisi.

La bella e famosa via Dante a Milano. Quando si visita Milano quasi sempre si va prima a vedere il Duomo e poi si cammina per andare al Castello Sforzesco. Per fare questo percorso si passa nella bella e rettilinea strada dedicata a Dante Alighieri.

Click here if you want to see all the photos I took:
Ecco dove si trova la strada:
La via Dante venne aperta a partire dal 1888 come collegamento viario con il Castello Sforzesco, contestualmente ai massicci interventi di sventramento effettuati in piazza Duomo e al Cordusio che ridisegnarono il centro della città. La nuova via venne realizzata secondo le indicazioni del Piano Beruto del 1884, che a sua volta si era richiamato a precedenti progetti dell’età napoleonica. Nelle intenzioni iniziali, con le diverse trasformazioni edilizie di quegli anni, l’arteria in costruzione avrebbe dovuto costituire l’ideale prolungamento in centro dell’asse del Sempione, realizzato agli inizi dell’Ottocento, che sarebbe passato sopra il Castello, la cui demolizione venne scongiurata da Luca Beltrami. Successivamente agli imponenti restauri del Castello operati dal Beltrami, a partire dal 1905 la via venne chiusa prospetticamente dalla rinata Torre del Filarete, eretta in memoria del re Umberto I e la cui prima costruzione era crollata a seguito di un’esplosione diversi secoli prima.
