Places
Castello di Aglič
This sumptuous home was built, beginning in 1646 following a design by Amedeo di Castellamonte, by Filippo d’Aglie, statesman, literary man, choreographer, and adviser to Madama Reale, on the ruins of an ancient fortress.
Forte di Fenestrelle
The largest fortified structure in Europe and the longest wall-structure in the world after the Great Wall of China: a 635-meter inclination, 3 km long, 1,300,000 square meters large, 4,000 steps in the Scala Coperta (Covered Staircase), 2,500 steps in the Scala Reale (Royal Staircase), 5 drawbridges, and 183 lights to illuminate the interior.
Palaisozaki
It is the new Torino Olympic Palasport (Sports Arena) designed by the Japanese architect Arata Isozaki for the Winter Olympics in Torino 2006. A multi-functional space, versatile and flexible which, thanks to the mobility of its platform, can turn from an ice rink into a concert, show, or convention venue.

People
Sergio Rubini
“Torino is a city that one could decide to live in. It’s outstandingly good to arrive in Piazza Carignano and go to dinner at the Cambio, stroll through Piazza San Carlo or go for a ride to Porta Palazzo amongst the different colours, smells and languages”.
Carolina Kostner
"The people of Piemonte are rather similar to the people of Alto Adige. That’s probably because the mountains are two steps away…but, in Torino, which is a big city, there isn’t the same atmosphere as there is in my part of the country. Here, there’s everything. Discovering its most interesting sides will be a true pleasure…"
Alessandro Baricco
"Torino is a place where, in general, things are done with great seriousness and exactness. Even living and dying."
