The climax of this relationship between sport and city was influenced by the 2006 Winter Olympics . For this world leading event, Turin changed its presence.

One of the most common is PalaIsozaki namely taking its name from the architect who designed this enormous and shimmering parallel piped stadium.

The Pala Alpitour is located in the Santa Rita quarter about 10 minutes by Vespa from the historic center . It is easy to reach because the “Grande Torino” Olympics Stadium is also in this and it is where the major tree-lined avenues in the city converge: Corso Giovanni Agnelli, Corso Re Umberto, Corso Galileo Ferraris and Corso Unione Sovietica.
