The baroque Piazza San Carlo is known as il salotto di Torino (Turin's salon, or drawing room). On the south side are twin 17th-century churches, Santa Cristina and San Carlo Borromeo.
What a gorgeous Piazza and impressive buildings, Pietro! I would like to be there... Love the name "il salotto di Torino". I like so much Italian language.
Buongiorno Pietro...con il pensiero ero li in Piazza del Plebiscito a cantare insieme ad Arbore ma fisicamente ero qui con la mia mamma che ha quasi 90 anni.... abbiamo fatto il brindisi allo scoccare del primo minuto dell'anno nuovo poi l'ho messa a letto ed io sono andata a sparare due fuochi artificiali per festeggiare il nuovo anno, poi sono andata a letto anche io.
Ciao Pietro, How's Torino in these very first days? Here I have been spending such a quiet day. My appreciation to you because of your quick replies about my questions left on your articles. Thank you again and again:) Have a blessed Sunday~
