This is Basilica di Superga. It is nice, very nice, but I was not impressed, maybe it's my past in Rome, too used to all those antique churches, abbeys and ruins everywhere, I don't know. To get to Superga you have to go to Sassi (bus 15 from Piazza Castello) and then get on the old rack railway that takes you up to the Basilica. I missed the guided visit for the tombs and didn't want to wait an hour, so I just had a look at the church and the surroundings, the hill offers great views of Turin and especially the mountains. I saw Monviso and almost cried because I don't know if I will be able to go there as planned. Unfortunately it was impossible to take a photo, too misty.
