A Quick guide to Torino car hire in Italy

When looking for a rental vehicle in Torino it can be expensive, that is why our pre-booking car rental will leave you to enjoy your holiday in Torino. You need to enjoy your travels, especially at Torino.

Turin (Torino) is the capital of Italy's Piemonte (Piedmont) region, in the far north-west of the country, and is famous for a curious assortment of things: including Fiat, chocolate, football and the Turin Shroud. Close to the Alps, Turin makes a good starting-point for skiing holidays; it also deserves a few days to itself as tourist destination.

Turin does not have the political importance it once held before the parliament of a united Italy moved to Rome, but the city is a major industrial centre (most famous for Fiat) and the attractive Baroque town centre is cosmopolitan and gracious.

One of Turin's most conspicuous tourist attractions is the Mole Antonelliana. Originally intended as a synagogue, the Mole is a tall nineteenth-century brick building topped by an aluminium spire; a strange edifice celebrated on Italy's 2 cent coins. If you take a lift to the roof terrace you'll enjoy fantastic views. The building is home to the Museo Nazionale del Cinema, Italy's National Cinema Museum, which has many interesting displays and is well worth a visit.

Piazza Castello is the hotspot of tourist Turin, home to grand palaces such as Palazzo Reale, the royal palace of the Savoy dynasty, and Palazzo Madama, previously a castle, prison, barracks, senate house, and now a museum. Around the Piazza - and indeed throughout Turin - you will find elegant historic cafes; an important part of Turin life.

One of Turin's best museums is the Museo Egizio (Egyptian Museum), reckoned to be the best collection of Egyptian artefacts outside Cairo.

Turin is to be the base for the 2006 Winter Olympics, which will take place in the many skiing resorts within easy reach of the city.

Turin's Duomo was erected between 1491 and 1498. Its 17th-Century Guarini Chapel was the home of the so-called 'Holy Shroud' (Sacra Sindone) for four centuries. Today the shroud is shut up in an urn and not visible to the public.
