Turin hosts


Introducing Turin, or rather "offering Turin", is not an easy task if you think of the many clichés the name Turin conjures up. Forget the stereotypes, getting to know it will be a surprise to you. The enchantment of Turin lies in its two thousand year history, which tells of Roman origins, the medieval period it emerged from, the political and cultural role which became more and more important until it was finally recognised as a great European Capital in the Eighteenth century. Afterwards, Turin became the cornerstone of that great project, the reunification of Italy. In order to discover such a little known heritage, the Fiavet Accommodation Committee has organised a series of accommodation packages and tours which skilfully blend the history, art, culture and traditions of Turin.
For more information on hotels and tourist programmes, contact the Fiavet Accommodation Committee, tel./fax 011 - 501518 working hours 9 a.m./12 p.m. - 3 p.m./6 p.m. Furthermore, a Fiavet information point will be set up inside the Bit, providing further information on the special low rates for Scaccomatto.
