Come and discover Turin in a very unusual way. For 2.5 hours you will be plunged into the darker side of the city.

Turin has two souls: one linked to white magic, the other to evil-black magic. You will explore them both during a "magical mystery tour" starting from Piazza Statuto, the "hearth of darkness" of the city, a part of the city that Romans, who founded Turin, considered an unlucky area and used as a burial site.

At sunset you will drive past scary stone monsters, sinister architecture, unusual statues adorning ancient buildings and a small strange detail of the Duomo, which houses the famous Holy Shroud.

Even if you have never believed in magic, come and discover the place considered by the guru's of occultism as one of the worlds capitals for both black and white magic.

Bergamo was founded on a hill by a first very old settlement in the protohistoric age, age which gave it the configuration that still characterizes it: the oldest part of the town, enclosed within walls, lays up on the hill while the modern center has developed on the plain.

Two different cable railways take people from downtown either to the Castle or to the upper town. Developing for more than 3 miles (five kilometers), the still well-preserved town walls that encircle Bergamo on the hill are one of the most important evidence of bulwarks of the fifth century. Celts, Goths, Romans, Lombards succeeded on the hill, but the four centuries under the Venetian domination are the most significant period, when Venice and Bergamo were very close, both from an historical and a cultural point of view.

Piazza Vecchia, the heart of the old town, is enriched by such remarkable historical and religious monuments as the Palazzo del Comune or Palazzo della Ragione, the Cathedral, St Maria Maggiore, the Colleoni Chapel and the Baptistery.

The old town lays amongst the greenery, to the advantage of the landscape. This strip of lush vegetation connects the historical town with the hill region extending westward. The territory, included in the regional park "Parco dei Colli" of Bergamo, is full of villas, farmhouses, gardens, woods.
