Bellinzona: castelgrande's walls give you Montebello and Sasso Corbaro across the rooftops, and the old Murata wall then carries you down toward the vineyards of the Ticino valley.
In what order do the castles of bellinzona fit into a single day when Castelgrande keeps fixed opening hours? Morning coffee under the arcades comes before the castle, the climb to Castelgrande follows once the gate is open, and the Murata takes you down well before closing, which is the order Bellinzona rewards. Your spending in Bellinzona switzerland comes down to the train ticket, the Fortezza Pass that the castles share and a coffee in the old town, while the squares and stairways of the old town cost nothing.

This 4K walking tour takes you through Bellinzona from the railway station to Piazza Indipendenza. On Piazza Simen we see the castle wall climb straight up the rock behind a bronze bust and a stone memorial, then pass a sign reading Fortezza on Piazza del Sole. In the old town we look at the rose window of the Collegiata, a lion's head fountain under the arcades and painted coats of arms along the lane to the Municipio. Inside Castelgrande we study a red model of the castle, walk past bronze sculptures on the lawn and head along the walkway toward Torre Bianca and Torre Nera. Down the Murata we walk on grass and wooden boards, then end the route past an orange street library on Via Carlo Salvioni and benches facing a yellow chapel.
Castelgrande's opening hours decide the order of the day, so the old town fills the morning and the long descent along the Murata only works if you are up on the walls well before the gate closes.
Filmed in 4K and narrated in English. Made for planning a trip to Ticino, or for deciding which part of Switzerland fits your trip.
