The Number 6 - Immagina Torino
The Number 6 è stato concepito per restituire all’antico Palazzo Valperga Galleani di Canelli di Barbaresco, in
Via Alfieri 6 nel cuore di Torino, la vocazione intrinseca di dimora prestigiosa ed “edificio da reddito” nobiliare,
che durante i secoli XVII e XVIII dettò le trasformazioni più significative ancora oggi leggibili e recuperabili come
facies architettonica dell’intera area. L’edificio realizzato nel 1663 da Maurizio Valperga, e ampliato nel 1781 da
Michele Luigi Barberis, ha infatti subito nel corso dei secoli profonde trasformazioni sia nella forma sia nella
destinazione d’uso. Palazzo Valperga Galleani è oggi un immobile dalle molteplici chiavi di lettura:
dall’architettura all’arte, dalla moderna funzionalità al benessere.

#32 IL VOLO DELLA BELL'ALDA Alle 8 del mattino
Dopo lo speciale dell'estate scorsa sulla sirena a due code, torniamo a parlare della Sacra di San Michele, con la leggenda della bell'Alda. Si tratta di un mito che affonda le sue radici nel XVII secolo, nell'800 fu abbellita da importanti storici e scrittori come il conte Cesare Balbo (che fu Presidente del Consiglio dei ministri), il senatore Domenico Carutti (che fu collaboratore di Cavour, segretario gerale del Ministero degli affari esteri), e l'immenso Massimo D'Azeglio (politico, patriota e pittore..e cugino del Balbo), che proposero diverse scelte narrative.
In cima a questo sperone roccioso chiamato monte Pirchiriano (nome contratto forse da Porcariano o monte dei porci), la Sacra è in posizione strategica: il suo aspetto è quello di un'opera fortificata; quasi priva di finestre, il suo scalone – detto “dei morti”, a causa dei cadaveri mummificati degli abati che occupavano i nicchioni, conduce alla chiesa, attraverso la Porta dello Zodiaco (interessante, ma di difficile attribuzione)
La nostra leggenda è ambientata però attorno a questo rudere, la Torre della Bell'Alda facente parte del Complesso Abbaziale della Sacra. Secondo il Carutti, su un poggio brullo e franoso, vicino alla Sacra, sorgeva un castello dove viveva un Conte malvagio. Alda abitava nei dintorni del monastero, era una fanciulla devota alla Vergine e all'Arcangelo Michele. Tornato dalla guerra, dopo due anni di assenza il Conte tornò a far tremare i contadini nelle vicinanze perché egli aveva fama di violento e crudele...

Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.
Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain
Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping!

Turin (; Italian: Torino [toˈriːno] (listen); Piedmontese: Turin [tyˈriŋ] (listen)) is a city and an important business and cultural centre in northern Italy. It is the capital city of the Metropolitan City of Turin (an administrative division of Italy) and of the Piedmont region, and was the first capital city of Italy from 1861 to 1865. The city is located mainly on the western bank of the Po River, in front of Susa Valley, and is surrounded by the western Alpine arch and Superga Hill. The population of the city proper is 878,074 (31 July 2018) while the population of the urban area is estimated by Eurostat to be 1.7 million inhabitants. The Turin metropolitan area is estimated by the OECD to have a population of 2.2 million.The city has a rich culture and history, being known for its numerous art galleries, restaurants, churches, palaces, opera houses, piazzas, parks, gardens, theatres, libraries, museums and other venues. Turin is well known for its Renaissance, Baroque, Rococo, Neo-classical, and Art Nouveau architecture. Many of Turin's public squares, castles, gardens and elegant palazzi such as the Palazzo Madama, were built between the 16th and 18th centuries. A part of the historical center of Turin was inscribed in the World Heritage List under the name Residences of the Royal House of Savoy.
The city used to be a major European political center. From 1563, it was the capital of the Duchy of Savoy, then of the Kingdom of Sardinia ruled by the Royal House of Savoy, and the first capital of the unified Italy (the Kingdom of Italy) from 1861 to 1865. Turin is sometimes called the cradle of Italian liberty for having been the birthplace and home of notable individuals who contributed to the Risorgimento, such as Cavour.The city currently hosts some of Italy's best universities, colleges, academies, lycea and gymnasia, such as the University of Turin, founded in the 15th century, and the Turin Polytechnic. In addition, the city is home to museums such as the Museo Egizio and the Mole Antonelliana. Turin's attractions make it one of the world's top 250 tourist destinations and the tenth most visited city in Italy in 2008.Even though much of its political significance and importance had been lost by World War II, Turin became a major European crossroad for industry, commerce and trade, and is part of the famous industrial triangle along with Milan and Genoa.
