I am an immigrant and i work as a driver here in turin. Most of the time i work outside of turin n before sunset i came back home. Whenever i reach the city entrance near Auchan shopping center, i feel it, i feel like now im back home, im safe, and protected. Turin is my home, and will always be. Its not only about the beauty of the city, but its people, culture, history and its acceptance for immigrants like me with open heart n full respect. 💕😍😍💕💕 Long live Turin, Italy
I can't tell you how pleased I am to hear such sentiments from an immigrant. My son goes to middle school in Turin and has known many immigrant kids (Chinese, Syrian, Peruvian). I know it is hard for them to integrate, especially when their parents struggle with the language and customs. I'm glad to hear that the city is home to you.
For tourists/ visitors i must say that Turin is a bit different from other parts or destinations of italy. There is calmness, affection, affordability, classiness, and versatility in Turin. I'm sure, you gonna feel that. Industries, fashion, sports, religion, history, landscapes, alps, entertainment, n above all .. Food 😍..turin is complete package to visit n at the end of the day you would say, yeah Torino worth it.
Even Queen Victoria wrote about Garibaldi in her diary. It seems that when Garibaldi arrived in England he was acclaimed like an hero by thousands of people!
@@grantomalley8532 My wife's great grandparents also immigrated from Turin around 1890. They made some money and returned to Turin around 1911 when her grandmother was 17. They lived in Brooklyn and Greenwich Village and we visited a few sites where they had lived and had a furniture store. We still have her grandmother's US passport as she was an employee of the US Consulate in Turin, and we also found mention of her in a book about people importing Italian silent films to the US. She was quite exceptional.
@@JohnKruse Well I remember my dad telling me, that they were much different types of Italians that came here from that part of Italy (the north), then the larger masses that were from more South. That may be just an opinion, but I hear the remnants of that from time to time at family gatherings.
I live there part time and one of the people in our building is a Juve employee. We get tickets a few times per year. My son is in heaven! He also ran into Juan Cuadrado in our local park and got a photo with him. He is a class act and chatted with my mother in law for quite a while.
Great video1 amazing I am remembering my tour there last December, in fact1 I was in that cafeteria...mmm nutella eveywhere ..TORINO a bella cittá! Greetings from Venezuela.
Not mentioned that Nice /Côte di Azur and most of what is now known as the French Alps were under Italian rule under one kingdom or another since Romans times and that the King of Savoy signed them over to France in 1860, in the Treaty of Turin allowing France to annex them for France's help in Italian renunciation against Austria Empire.
I love Torino and still remember the time i had lost a cap and had to vista dentist here on a Sunday morning, long story, but very comical in a way looking back on it
I live in a city near Turin 20 minutes of car. I have to pay a compliment to you because normally when I see a guide of Italian city made by a foreign country the risk is cliches tendency! But this isn't your case! You have showed gianduiotto factory and not Nutella factory! Good work because Nutella is an industrial international cream of SUGAR, it see chocolate and hazelnuts only thanks for the telescope! And you've talked about Fiat and the hard work that torinesi do everyday! Sad story but is the reality! Good strike talking about the history of the kingdom of Italy in XIX century and of the history of agnelli or of the immigration of Sicilian people!
Nutella is original Italian (company Ferrero) in Alba a Cuneo , you must to study good history before written... And if you live in turin, you don't need so much effort for to know the most interresant points cause turin is in city so clear and easy, e se possibile parlare pocco italiano sarà più, meglio, then you can get the good guide from cittadini (citoyens) or also there's board geografic carte like maps out in street or in squars it's help so much and also you can use the maps Internet, so this time not difficult to get the right information... Be liitle intelligente
There has never been a French baroque, the French imitations were inspired by that of Rome, before disseminating news it would be better to document and accurately.
Take at least one ride on the driver-less metro train. It's fast and fun when you stand at the front of the 1st carriage! There are videos of it on youtube.
Don't focus your all attention on the city! Torino is beautiful, but just a few hours outside the city there are a lot of amazing locations, like the Sacra di San Michele in Avigliana that really deserve to be visited
i can suggest you many wonderful places to see... The Venaria Royal Palace The Sacra of s.Michael The Exilles fortress The Fenestrelle Fortress (5 thowsand steps ladder and biggest european defensive buildings) The Automobile Museum The Egyptian museum Rivoli castle The Stupinigi Hunting palace and obviously the cafes...
Il barocco non è francese è nato come la maggior parte degli stili architettonici in Italia a Roma il famoso barocco romano... BERNINI BORROMINI MADERNO....
English journalist !!! Look At Saint Paul Cathedral ! That s is italian baroque example . Non french style !! Study the History of Wren influenced by Michelsngelo Bernini and Borromini. And respect the history of italian art . Baroque is a style born in Roma and after in Itajy Spain and East of Europe . The french style is different and it s the italian style that influenced The french architecture, not the opposite!! Where Did you study ???
Baroque it s an italian style born in Roma . The french late baroque named rococò in totally different . This journalist is very very ignorant !!! It s incredible this ignorance about the european art !!!! It s a big shame for Bbc. Unforgettable ignorance without respect of Italy !!!!
So naïef.... Its so wired to make mistake like that... Just pelase these journalist so wrong..... Oh my god.... Italy is the capital of the world of story and culture... Respect
boroque started in ancient rome not france,france is crap ,just like latin started in ancient rome 3000 yrs ago ,its not hispanic its italian ,there s even a town near rome called latina ,so give italy its props and respect us
I know everyone's travel expriences are different, but this vid doesn't strike me as the Turin I saw recently. Sure, it's got "Baroque" architecture and its rich, posh places. But IMO Turin is a mostly a grubby, grimey, rude, cheating, hustling and bustling place - like most cities, in other words. That said, I met some really nice, sincere, interested/interesting locals, who were great to chat to. I also loved the outdoor/indoor market culture, and the amazing food and drink. That's probably the real deal, not what this vid doesn't show.
Well, every city is exactly what you say! you can not name me any city in the world which isn't what you describe. london, Nyc for example are shit holes! old dirty, filthy and dangerous! but also people will say one of the best cities in the world and its full of movie stars, rich businessmen and the greatest restaurants and nightlifesin the countries.. but when I visit NYC or london I see a decaying, dirty, old filthy cities.. I much prefer Dubai, Tokyo ...
I'm honestly jealous I'm from the OTHER big car-making city, Detroit, instead of a place of such culture. Sure a FIAT might be the butt of jokes, but I'd still rather take that L while drinking a bicerin at Piazza Vittorio Veneto.
Fiat is not a joke, it makes Small affordable city cars, that is their target. Besides they own Chrisler, Alfa Romeo, Maserati, Ferrari, Iveco etc.....and they merged with Peugeut. It's not a joke at all.

It sound like a great city 🧡 I’m also a foreigner and I want to study there so it’s great hearing that it’s a welcoming place

Gorgeous. Just what I dreamed Italy would be like.

Wow, my great grandparents came to here (USA) in the late 1890s. What a great place.
From Turin

so beautiful from the sky, I am loving it
I wanna go there someday to watch my beloved Juventus play!
Have you done that yet?
I live there part time and one of the people in our building is a Juve employee. We get tickets a few times per year. My son is in heaven! He also ran into Juan Cuadrado in our local park and got a photo with him. He is a class act and chatted with my mother in law for quite a while.

I understand that Garibaldi was always resentful, as he was from Nice.

FYI BBC -- Boroque is not french. It was started in Rome. Shame Shame!!!! Great episode though. Turin looks amazing and worth visiting!!
yes thank you ,evryone steals from italians even the latin culture and its always white non italian people

Moncalieri, you mean? Che peccato che sia ridotta così... è una cittadina sporchissima e completamente priva di carattere.
There has never been a French baroque, the French imitations were inspired by that of Rome, before disseminating news it would be better to document and accurately.
yes the french are nothing compared to italians ,i wish people would wake up
1:23 what a view!!
Bellissimo
I'm going to Turin in 2 months! any advice!
Take at least one ride on the driver-less metro train. It's fast and fun when you stand at the front of the 1st carriage!

Turin si french style, it’s undeniable, and it’s a compliment!!

Don't be one of those ones that moves abroad and doesn't learn the language. With a bit of effort you'll be speaking Italian with the locals
Quanto amo quando c è la nebbia e non si vede niente..Torino è bella così
Artigianal neh ❤️

DeMúsicaLigera40 sure, from an american history book maybe, right? 👌🏻
Garibaldi was a Republican
