Valentino - The Medieval Borough


To be honest it's not the real castle at Valentino park's. As said it was built during the International Expo held in Torino on 1884 and I published HERE the magical effects of a great enlighting. THIS is the real Castle :-)

Ad essere onesti questo non è il vero castello del Valentino. Come detto esso venne costruito durante l'Expo Internazionale tenutasi a Torino nel 1884 e QUI ho pubblicato i magici effetti di una sapiente illuminazione. QUESTO è il vero Castello :-)

I'm a bit confused. This is a beautiful but i followed your links and understand this castle is not the real Valentino castle. So what is it?
It's superb anyway.

Beautiful park. What a shame the castle is not real.

The REAL castle is even more beautiful than the fake castle. :-)

Nathalie, as I said this castle is a copy of another castle not far from Torino (by Aosta) and called Fenis Castle. This one was built in 1884 because an International Expo. -- The other one, the real one, if you click HERE you can read a bit if its history.

Ming, Ipersonally completely agree with you and -in my opinion- to build a... Fake it's a bit fool. By the way I canno hide that the result it's acceptable. LoL.

Chris Marsh, thank you so much of such appreciation. Anyway I ask you to consider that often we see greener other grass than our. In other words Torino is beautiful as many other cities in the whole world are.
