Torino - the hosting city
Vibrant and refined, always bustling with activity, Torino is nevertheless a city nestled amidst lush surroundings: serenely situated on the slopes and embraced by the meandering flow of the River Po, its allure is greatly enhanced by its picturesque position beneath the towering peaks of the western Alps, crowned with snow.
As the former Capital of Italy, Torino beckons you to explore its rich tapestry of ancient and contemporary history, its grand palaces and museums, its verdant parks and tree-lined boulevards, its tranquil riverbanks and rolling hills, its diverse culinary scene from traditional eateries to historic cafes, its expansive colonnaded streets and culturally diverse neighborhoods, its grand festivities and the myriad of simple joys that have long distinguished it, all harmonizing between the orderly layout of ancient Rome, the refined elegance of Piedmontese baroque, and the innovative spirit of modern and contemporary architecture.
