View of Piazza CavourPiazza Cavour lies along a line that practically divides the city in two because of its bizzare one way system and areas closed to traffic. To try to keep the traffic to where it's supposed to be, there is a network of annoying chains across the square which make it difficult for pedestrians to cross the road!
The buildings around the Piazza were all built in the first half of the 1800s when the city was expanded under Pietro Leopoldo II to designs by architect Luigi Bettarini.
