Tourist information - Turin
The city is known for its cold, greyness and large industries. On the other hand, it is also a fascinating, interesting city. Linked to the Savoy tradition and being the ex capital of Italy, it is a city of charm, rich in historic monuments with the entrepreneurial spirit of a city in continual economic growth. It is an ordered city, built to an urban plan from the roman period with linear streets that are clearly set out. Turin is an elegant city that does not flaunt its "regal" past, traces of which can be found in its artistic, historic and museum heritage.
Turin (Italian Torino)is in northwestern Italy, capital of Turin Province and of Piedmont Region, at the confluence of the Po and Dora Riparia rivers. The city is a major cultural and industrial center, with manufactures of motor vehicles, leather and rubber goods, clothing, and plastic products.
