Parco Sempione

Parco Sempione is an urban park in central Turin featuring tree-lined pathways, landscaped gardens, and open green spaces. The grounds include artificial lakes, sports facilities, and dedicated areas for cultural events.

The park was created in the late 19th century during Turin's major urban expansion following Italy's unification. This period transformed the city into a modern metropolis with new public spaces.

The park serves as a gathering place where locals enjoy outdoor activities and the community organizes seasonal events and performances. These occasions reflect how the space has become central to everyday life in the city.

Admission is free and the park has multiple entry points throughout the area, allowing visitors to enter from different sides. Opening hours run from early morning until sunset, providing ample time for exploration.

The park contains artificial lakes that are often overlooked by first-time visitors yet shape the overall landscape and provide cool spots throughout the grounds. These water features add a distinctive character that sets the space apart from typical urban parks.
