Torino, Italy

Home Up

Well this is the second time I've been here in Torino, but this time I have time to do a few things.  The first day I made a hike out to a vista point that has a Basilica.  Though you can take a train I decided to walk, it took about 2 hours to get my silly ass there.  About 30 minutes away from the top of the hill I took this picture of my goal.

When I got to the Basilica there was a service in progress that was going to last for 3 hours!  I didn't stay long inside, but I snapped a few photo's of the outside.  What a beautiful building!

It's unfortunate that the smog is choking this city, as is evident from the following pictures.
