Although most people choose Rome or Florence as their disembarkation point and base of operations during their stay in Italy, several other less well travelled possibilities exist. She really is a city in the southern part of Italy which can make an excellent choice of destination from which to explore the surrounding countryside. Touring is served by a single airport, the Caselle International Airport, and this would make an ideal choice of location from which to pickup or drop off your hire car.
There are whole host of day excursions that can be taken from Turin once you have access to your own hire car; one of the more interesting if less common things to do is to take a tour of Turin’s classical industrial architecture. Starting out at Porta Susa station head towards the Monument to the First King of Italy, this statue was the work of the work of Pietro Costa and stands on four tall columns. Heading towards the Hotel Turin Palace we find Porta Nuova Station and the Church of San Salvario which was built by Carlo di Castellamonte in 1646. A small stone obelisk can be found at the front of the church which commemorates the death of the victims of the 1821 riots. Turin has a myriad of great examples of Italian industrial architecture, all of which will be so much easier to reach if you have access to your own hire vehicle. |
