As the 2010 winter Olympics get underway in Vancouver, it’s fun to take a look back at the 2006 Winter Olympics held in Torino or Turin. Here are pictures on Europe Travel taken by James Martin when he covered the 2006 Winter Olympics for About.com:
- Piazza Castello where the medal ceremonies were held.
- Fireworks Photos taken at the closing ceremony.
- Photos of 2006 Winter Olympic Athletes
Marla and Fabrizio at Bella Baita Bed and Breakfast, in the heart of the Val Chisone where many of the athletic events were held, have some great photos from the Torino Olympics on their blog.
