Places

Castello di Costigliole d’Asti

Surrounded by a large park, the castle houses an international cooking school and the annual “asta del Barbera” (“Barbera auction”) which has become a not-to-miss event for fans of quality wine.

Forte di Vinadio

Requested by Re Carlo Alberto, the Forte (Fort) di Vinadio represents one of the most important examples of military architecture from the Alps. It extends length-wise for 1,200 meters, on three levels, which cover about 10 km of interior passageway.

Villa Taranto Botanical Gardens

Villa Taranto and its gardens, which look out over Lago Maggiore, have a vast botanical trove that includes about 1,000 plants, which until today had never been cultivated in Italy, and about 20,000 varieties and species of particular botanical importance.

“Torino: a magnificent city from an architectural viewpoint. There was a lot of snow and people all over the place the last time we played in Piazza Vittorio during the 2006 Olympic White Nights: truly an atmosphere that cannot be replicated.”

Walter Dang

“Torino’s ladies are the ideal interpreters of my creations, balanced between classicism and experimentation. They never much attention to brand names, dressing in an understated way focusing on substance and not appearance. They want to be original without being brash.”

 

Patty Smith

"Torino is a distinct city, with a lot of character. It’s not like Firenze or other Italian cities that overwhelm you, where you’re overcome by tourists. It is a city that has a very precise personality, a style, a soul."
