Metropolitan City of Turin, Administrative division in Piedmont, Italy
The Metropolitan City of Turin is an administrative division in Piedmont, Italy, linking the urban center with surrounding towns into a single zone. It covers a wide area stretching from the edge of the capital to the mountain peaks of the western Alps.
This administrative division replaced the former province in 2015, following a national reform of territorial governance. The change aimed to strengthen urban cooperation between municipalities across the territory.
The territory includes multiple UNESCO World Heritage Sites, such as the Residences of the Royal House of Savoy and the Sacro Monte di Belmonte religious complex.
Travelers move through this territory mainly by train, bus, or car, with rail lines connecting many towns in the valleys and hillsides. An international airport north of the capital provides access for those arriving from farther away.
The territory holds parts of the Gran Paradiso massif, whose summits rank among the highest in the Italian Alps. The elevation differences range from the plains near the Po river to glaciated mountain ridges.
