TURIN

Description:

Turin was the first capital of Italy from 1861 to 1865. The city was founded by the Celts but later became a fortress of the Roman Empire. Today it is one of the most important touristic, scientific, industrial and university centers of Italy. Turin is a special city differing from other Italian cities; here the aristocratic spirit reigns, the Italian royal family originated from here; old shops are numerous in the narrow streets while enormous palaces impress with their dimensions. The night panorama if Turin impresses even more. Mole-Antonelliana, a symbol of the city, presents an experimental tower, built in 19th century 167 of meters high. Today there is an interesting museum if cinematography inside. A beautiful royal palace of Savoyard dynasty was recognized a part of UNESCO%27s world patrimony together with two other palaces of this dynasty. Palazzo Madama is an example of Turin%27s elegance. Monte dei Capuccini is a hill from where one can see a perfect panorama on the city immersed in the Alps. Turin is a royal city!

Climate

Turin lies in a zone of subcontinental climate with cold dry winters and hot stuffy summers (for there is no wind). In summers temperature does not fall below 22 degrees. In winters the Alp%27s influence is felt here.
