One way to get to know this city is to take a planned tour,which was neat because they gave you earpieces and had the tour in many different languages.
Note there are 2 different tours. But nowhere does it say the "B" tour is only on weekends. Spent an hour waiting for that tour bus before the "A" bus came along and told me to hop on if I wanted a tour.
But by taking the tour, I know if 4 places I would like to go back to visit
The city has been in existence for a thousand years and the variety of the architecture reflects this.
Until 15 years ago, it was a very industrial city dominated by Fiat Auto, until they went bankrupt, along with other car companies. The city then reinvested in themselves, by renewing all this architecture downtown, and now is thriving on a very mixed economic climate.
good bet is to always take the double decker bus tour first, gives great "lay of the land" -- even best to do when visiting US cities.
