Biella was very nicely surprising...
I went to Biella at the end of 2007 for business. I was prepared to find anything but old textile industries ready to close because of the extremely severe chinese competition. Despite the fact the town was completely DESERT on evening (on Monday there was an important football match on TV but on Tue was desert as well) the old town offers very artistic and lovely views as this batpisterium, of the best I've ever seen. I must warn you: piemontese people is a bit closed-minded, in my opinion...sorry for piemontese Vters!
