The Royal Palace of Turin, the first king of the Kingdom of Italy and the capital of the country

#Tourism

Turin is the fourth largest city in Italy.

The "Royal Palaces of the House of Savoy" in this city are also famous as a World Heritage Site.

-
The city was once the capital of Italy, when Vittorio Emanuele II of the House of Savoy became the first king of the Kingdom of Italy.

-
Perhaps influenced by the French queens of the House of Savoy, the city has a refined and glamorous atmosphere reminiscent of Paris or Vienna.

Despite this, there is a sense of melancholy in the city.

In the final stages of World War II, the royal family quickly fled the country, abandoning the suffering people.

After the war, the monarchy was abolished and Italy became a republic, and the Savages were expelled by referendum.

The dazzling Royal Armory.

I wonder how strong the users of this decorated building must have been.

-
The chandeliers and even the tableware have a royal feel.
