(September 13th) The National Museum of Cinema in Turin, as I mentioned before, was this gorgeous synagogue that had run out of money during construction and was subsequently handed over to the state.
The building itself was entirely supported by its shell: there were no internal columns or beams holding it up. And, to top it off, you could take an elevator directly through the middle to the top. Not for the faint of heart as it was all glass with no other walls!
Inside were a number of different themed rooms, such as Looney Toons:
and mad science amongst many others...
The view from the top was incredible. In the distance, the Alps
And to the East
And to the South West
Definitely should be a top place on your list of places to visit in Torino.
