Great smaller city | Largo Porta Nuova looking up to the Citta' Alta |
Great walking city with the old town on the hill the main destination, also all the designer shops and department stores you expect in an Italian city |
| Largo Porta Nuova from Viale Papa Giovanni XXIII |
|  | Easy destination Orio al Serio airport is one of the budget carrier's hubs and is served by Ryanair from airports in Scotland Ireland and England as well as a bucket load of other European cities |
| the Contarini fountain on a wet November day |
| | Short stay destination worth a second look In Piazza Vecchia in the Citta Alta there are numerous points of interest - one famous example is the Contarini fountain.
Tends to be a long weekend for most visitors, we were only here Fridayand Satruday nights late November 2007, but definitely plan to have a second look another year |

| Pros: | "Lots of points of interest, good hotels, easy to get to" | | Cons: | "Maybe a bit short of restaurant options in the centre?" | | In A Nutshell: | "Scenic, busy, city like & rustic at once, a compact little Italy" |
