British praise for Bergamo - The British newspaper Daily Mail a few days ago he extolled and praised Bergamo, extolling the qualities and merits of our beloved medieval town.
In particular, journalist Hodgkinson speaks of Bergamo as a city full of beauty but little known compared to nearby Milan. It is easily accessible via the city airport of Orio al Serio and offers numerous tourist attractions. Here among 'art and ice cream' one can concretely live the authentic Italian experience in a glorious treasure trove of culture and tradition.
British praise for Bergamo - Donizetti's operas
Hodgkinson describes the many excellences of our city, starting with the works of the Renaissance artist Giovanni Battista Moroni and up to the splendid hill of San Vigilio.
The English journalist also extols art, defining Bergamo as 'the perfect example of Italy in miniature', tracing a veritable itinerary of the city's excellences. Thus historical and cultural places stand out, such as the Colleoni Chapel and the Venetian wallsas well as restaurants and shops that are fulcrum of Italian tradition and taste.
Finally, the newspaper does not forget to mention the famous Gaetano Donizetti, who has achieved great success all over the world with his extraordinary compositions.
British praise for Bergamo - the city of the Thousand
After describing Bergamo as the 'brilliant walled city at the foot of the Alps', the Daily Mail recalls the Risorgimento side of the city of the Thousand. It then emphasises the extraordinary independence feat of Garibaldi and his companions, the majority of whom are from Bergamo.
Finally, after a glimpse of culture and architecture, the article deals with the culinary and gastronomic aspect of Bergamo, starting with the 'sublime Italian ice cream', mentioning the pastry 'La Marianna'. He also dwells on our typical cheeses and our amazing casoncellistrictly with butter, sage and bacon, even better if accompanied by a glass of Moscato di Scanzo.
Bergamo, with its enormous growth potential, has all the credentials to become one of the most visited Italian destinations from abroad.
This valuable analysis can only be good for the image of our city. We wholeheartedly hope that Bergamo will continue to attract more and more tourists from abroad, thus becoming an important Italian tourist hub.
