anchor: Take the pretty excursion up on a hill across the river to Sassi, 10 km (6 miles) east of Turin, to see Juvarra's Baroque masterpiece, the splendid domed Basilica di Superga completed in 1731 and the hilltop view of Turin, the Alps, and the Po Plain.
positive: Sassi is over five miles east of Turin, and has a beautiful Basilica.
negative: Sassi is sixty miles east of Turin and is a wasteland.
