The park is free to enter. It would just be an open green space with a few bricks dating from Roman times were it not ..

... for the fact it is dominated by the magnificent 2000-year old Porta Palatina city gate.

Pleasant park within Piazza Carlo Felice, the square opposite Porta Nuova train station. Small, but a good place to have a rest from the hustle & bustle of the city.

Piazza Castello is the main square of Turin and is absolutely stunning. It is dominated by Palazzo Madama, with its unique double facade - it has a castle on one side and a palace on the other.

This was the first attraction I chanced upon in Turin - and it is breath-taking.

Whoever designed the tower must have been on something as it is a glorious folly!

The building houses the Museum of Cinema and for €9 you can take the lift to the top, but I just admired it from outside.

Wroclaw's Town Hall is a Stunning Gothic building in the main square and dates back to the 13th century.

An art museum is housed in the rear of the building.
