Market Street

When I first arrived in Italy, I was quite surprised to see these markets in the middle of the streets. Scene that had disappeared in Singapore years ago and here in Italy, it is an daily event. 

The market is set up in the morning, and dismantled in the afternoon,  then place is normally used as parking lots. The prices of the foods however are usually higher than in the big market like in Porta Palazzo.

Location : Corso Palestro

Morning People

Morning under the arcade in piazza San Carlo, people start to have their breakfast at the bar before heading to work or whatever business they have to deal with early in the morning.

 Location : Piazza San Carlo

Big Watering Can

A huge watering Can in the Borgo San Paolo, on the side of   the street via Dante Di Nanni in front of the Parish San Bernardino.

Via Dante Di Nanni, is considered a symbol of the area, it is 1 km long starting from the Parish.

Location : Via Dante Di Nanni

In the Middle Of The Field

It looks like a big grass field, perhaps in the outskirt of the town, but it is actually in the middle of a few heavy traffic streets in the center of the Turin.

It is located just after Piazza Statuto, surrounded by Corso Inghriterra, Corso Principe Oddone, via Cibraio, Corso Francia.

It is mainly used by dog owners, I guess, to walk their dogs, just hope that the owners at least pick up their dog's poos and not leaving them to fertilize the field.

Location : Piazza Statuto

Blank Screen

Every summer, most cinema are closed, and in the courtyard of the Royal Palace, a big screen is held up to project movies in the evening for the pubblic to enjoy. However, it is not free, tickets have to be purchased in order to be able to watch the movies.

The screen is place just next to the entrance to the Royal garden, so during the day, passing through the courtyard, going to the garden, there are all the empty seats and a big blank screen on the side of the gate to the garden.

Location : Palazzo Reale

Park Exhibition

There are many murals in Turin, all are beautifully done, but not all of them are located in the center, in fact they are well spreaded all over the city. 

 

It is not easy to be able to see them all, so an exhibition is setup in the Royal garden, displaying the photos and listed the locations of these murals, so we get to know where they are and perhaps next time when we pass by the area, we can stop by and have a closer look at them.

Location : Giardini Reali

Beg

He always kneels down, holding up the paper  with words such as I am hungry written on it.

And he almost always stays in the center of the walkway. It is a sad sight to see, but at the same time, can't help to feel something is off....

Location : Via Roma
