3 days in Turin Itinerary

A city of technology and industry, Turin is in northwestern Italy, a one-hour drive from the French border and slightly more than that from the Mediterranean Sea.

Head to Vicolungo The Style Outlets and Mercato di Porta Palazzofor some retail therapy. Visit La Venaria Reale and Duomo di Torino e Cappella della Sacra Sindone for their historical value. There's still lots to do: examine the collection at Museo Nazionale del Cinema, contemplate in the serene atmosphere at Basilica di Superga, admire the masterpieces at Egyptian Museum of Turin, and don't miss a visit to Metropolitana di Torino.
