Turin is a former
industrial city which now, after the Winter Games 2006, reveals
itself as a cultural city. The visit to the Reggia of Venaria, which
was used as a model for the one of Versailles, recently renewed, is
the main focus of this journey. But also the “Magical Turin”, a
nightly journey which will lead us to discover a different face of
the city, both charming and mysterious; Turin, together with London
and Prague, is indeed part of a magical triangle.
The cycling paths runs along the four city rivers; into the parks;
under the large boulevards, which are very similar to those of Paris;
the park of Valentino with its castle and the medieval village and
the castle of Moncalieri, which is part of the Unesco together with
the Royal Residences of Savoia, formers kings of Italy.
Much more than this awaits you during these marvellous cycling days.
