LAY OF THE LAND
Turin lies 669km (415 miles) northwest of Rome, and 140km (87 miles) east of
Milan. For now, the city's main train station is Stazione Porta Nuova, just south
of the center on Piazza Carlo Felice, at the intersection of Turin's two major thor-
oughfares, Corso Vittorio Emanuele and Via Roma. There are, on average, one to
two trains per hour to and from Milan (2 hr.), Venice (5-6 hr.), and Genoa (2
hr.), and nine trains daily to and from Rome (7-9 hr.).
There are long-term plans to move the bulk of train services from Porta Nuova
to the Porta Susa station, west of the center on Piazza XVIII Dicembre, which
currently merely connects Turin with outlying Piemonte towns—though, given
the chaos surrounding the Olympics, just when that will happen is anybody's
guess.
