Turin was once synonymous with industry and gray skies due to the city being the epicenter of the automobile in Italy. Now, it’s a completely different scene; the sky shines bright (even if a little hazy from pollution). And actually, before the Industrial Revolution shaped the heart of the city, Turin was once Italy’s first capital. And as you may be aware, Turin recently hosted the Olympics in 2006, too. So there’s plenty of development, evolution, and historical precedence woven into the history of this city.
