Places to see in ( Cuneo - Italy )
Cuneo is a city and comune in Piedmont, Northern Italy, the capital of the province of Cuneo, the third largest of Italy’s provinces by area. It is located at 550 metres in the south-west of Piedmont, at the confluence of the rivers Stura and Gesso. There is a raft of reasons why you should drop by stately Cuneo, not least being the food, the bike friendliness, the hiking possibilities nearby, and, last but certainly not least, the city's signature rum-filled chocolates.
Sitting on a promontory of land between two rivers, Cuneo also provides excellent Alpine views framed by the high pyramid-shaped peak of Monte Viso (3841m) in the Cottian Alps.
Including all bordering municipalities Beinette, Borgo San Dalmazzo, Boves, Busca, Caraglio, Castelletto Stura, Centallo, Cervasca, Morozzo, Peveragno, Tarantasca and Vignolo the population is 123,301 inhabitants. It is near six important mountain passes:
Colle della Maddalena at 1,996 metres (6,549 ft)
Colle di Tenda at 1,871 metres (6,138 ft) - Tunnel of Tenda at 1,300 metres (4,300 ft), 3 kilometres (1.9 mi) long
Colle del Melogno at 1,027 metres (3,369 ft)
Colle San Bernardo at 957 metres (3,140 ft)
Colle di Nava at 934 metres (3,064 ft)
Colle di Cadibona at 459 metres (1,506 ft).
Cuneo was founded in 1198 by the local population, who declared it an independent commune, freeing themselves from the authority of the bishops of Asti and the marquisses of Montferrat and Saluzzo. In 1210 the latter occupied it, and in 1231 the Cuneesi rebelled. In 1238 they were recognized as free commune by Emperor Frederick II.
In 1259 the independence of Cuneo ceased forever, as it gave itself, also to take protection against its more powerful neighbours, to Charles I of Anjou, who was then King of Naples and Count of Provence. Together with Alba, it was the main Angevine possession in Northern Italy; their rule (in fact interrupted by periods under Saluzzo, Savoy, the Visconti of Milan) ended in 1382 when Cuneo was acquired by the Duchy of Savoy.

Pamban Bridge is a railroad connect which interfaces the town of Rameswaram on Pamban Island to territory India. Opened on 24 February 1914, it was India's first ocean connect, and was the longest ocean connect in India until the opening of the Bandra-Worli Sea Link in 2010. The rail connect is, generally, a customary scaffold laying on solid wharfs, yet has a twofold leaf bascule segment halfway, which can be raised to give ships and freight boats a chance to go through. Till 1988, the Pamban connect was the main surface transport that associated Tamil Nadu's island of Rameswaram to the terrain.
In 1988, a street connect was additionally built parallel to the rail connect. This street connect is otherwise called Annai Indira Gandhi Road Bridge. The Pamban Road Bridge interfaces the National Highway (NH 49) with the Rameswaram island. It remains on the palk strait and between the shores of Mandapam (Place on the Indian Main land) and Pamban (One of the anglers town in Rameswaram island).
