Northern Italy Attractions

Northern Italy has hundreds of attractions. The attractions that I explaining is MUST be include in your itinerary during trip to Northern Italy.

First is Verona Arena.

Verona Arena is located in the Bra Square and it's one of the best preserved Roman Amphitheaters in Italy. Wandering the site is quite interesting and climbing the steps to the top of the theater is a joy because you get fantastic views over Verona.

Second is Towers of Bologna.

The Towers of Bologna (a.k.a the Two Towers) are two beautiful medieval towers. The towers are over 200ft tall and the climb up the narrow wooden steps (over 400 steps) is quite difficult.

Third is Milan Cathedral.
The Duomo of Milan is without a doubt, one of the most popular tourist attractions in Northern Italy and one of the most impressive landmarks in Europe. The Duomo of Milan is one of the largest Gothic cathedrals in the world and its construction is nothing short of amazing because of its intricate detail, stunning columns and huge belfries.

Fourth is Bergamo.

The city of Bergamo is an attraction on its own and it's one place in Northern Italy that you certainly want to spend at least 2-3 days exploring. This beautiful city is nestled near the Bergamo Alps. You’ll be able to enjoy pleasant strolls and buy foods from local farmers.

Fifth is Renon Cable Car, Bolzano.

Bolzano is another charming mountain town in the north of Italy that you simply cannot miss visiting during your travels. The main reason to visit Bolzano is to ride on the scenic Renon cable car, which climbs from Bolzano all the way up to the mountain village of Soprabolzano. The ride on the cableway is fun, though it’s the views of the Dolomites that make this cable ride worth it because you simply won’t get a better and cheaper way to photograph the Italian Alps. 

Last but not least is Via Garibaldi.
  Via Garibaldi is another tourist attraction worth adding to your itinerary of northern Italy because it’s one of the most famous streets in Italy. Via Garibaldi was one of the richest streets in Italy back in the 16th century.
