DISCOVERING CONTEMPORARY TURIN

Those who expect a gray city, still tied to its industrial past, will be amazed to see how Turin has been able to renew itself thanks to the refunctionalization of old factories, transformed into cultural centers or multifunctional centers, and the construction of new futuristic buildings, designed by worldwide famous architects. The tour starts from the iconic building of industrial Turin, the Lingotto, a former FIAT factory transformed by Renzo Piano into a multifunctional center. By underground, inaugurated on the occasion of the 2006 Winter Olympics, you will reach Porta Susa station, the city's second railway hub, then continue your visit to admire the Officine Grandi Riparazioni from outside, one of the most important examples of industrial architecture in the Nineteenth century. The tour will end with an aperitif on the 35th floor of the modern Intesa San Paolo skyscraper, also by Renzo Piano, where you can enjoy an amazing view of the city.
