My girlfriend was presenting at an academic conference in Turin last week so I took the opportunity to take some photos, we were travelling light so no tripod so was slightly limited but pleased with the results. More in my flickr, http://www.flickr.com/photos/markmullen/

4. - I will probably clone out the bollard on the left when I've got chance.


Finally I can recommend Turin for anyone wanting a cheap holiday in Italy, lovely architecture, cracking weather, friendly people and good food.

I was there in October last year (just spent a day as I was travelling further South) and loved it.
Oh and the piazza, fabulous; had one of the best meals of my life there! lick

Yes, it is a beautiful city. I stayed there for a while, and it's only a short train (or car, of course) ride away deep into the Alps!

I think I saw it from the plane on the way in but was only there for a short while so didn't get chance to visit I am afraid.
