Wonderful pics...but because this is a rate a skyline thread I cannot give more than 3.5 points, I just donīt see a real skyline anywhere.

5/10 Are those mountains in Italy or is that Switzerland?
Turin is very pretty...somehow I expected a more industrial city. Isn't Turin where they make FIATs?

I don't give a hoot about skylines. I care about cities. And Torino has many gorgeous buildings! :cool:

Plus, this Italian city will host the next Winter Olympics, so I imagine Turin will change considerably, with new buildings and infrastructure ... :okay:

But those amazing mountains in the background makes up for quite a lot I must say!

If you are going to start a thread you should at least read the posts that people add, and answer our questions?

Now that the Olympics are over can I we go back to calling it Turin, instead of Torino. We don't call Milan Milano or Rome Roma or Munich Muenchen, why did NBC change what Americans have always called Turin to Torino?

Landscape: 8 a nice river and nice mountains, but mountains are a bit too far away from the city
City size and density: 6 looks like a dense but not very big city
Historical/cultural buildings/value: 9.5 10 is reserved for cities like venice and florence
Metropolitan/Global city: 6 Lookwise it does not look very metropolitan and global
Quantity of the high-rises: 4 not enough for a modern skyline, at least as long as the newly planed ones are not finished
Quality of the high-rises: 7 nice architecture but a bit too old
Functionality of the high-rises: 8 to the purpose, decent, the buildings don't look as if they were made for show purposes and for impressing others and they seem to fulfill real functions in the city.

(8+6+9.5+6+4+7+8)/7 = 6.9

7 points!
