Roman Quadrilateral, Historic district in central Turin, Italy
The Roman Quadrilateral district features intersecting perpendicular streets forming a grid pattern inherited from the ancient Roman urban planning system.
The area marks the original boundaries of Julia Augusta Taurinorum, established as a Roman military camp with walls connecting four main gates in 28 BC.
The neighborhood maintains its medieval street layout while housing restaurants, shops, and social venues that represent modern Piedmontese urban life.
Visitors can explore the district through a network of pedestrian streets connecting Via Garibaldi to Porta Palazzo market, with numerous dining establishments.
Original Roman walls remain visible both in open-air locations and integrated within later buildings throughout the district.
