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.

Do some cultural sightseeing at Museo Egizio and Reggia di Venaria Reale. Do your shopping at Via Roma and Galleria Sabauda. Change things up with these side-trips from Turin: Parco Naturale del Monte San Giorgio (in Piossasco) and Castello di Grinzane Cavour (in Grinzane Cavour). There's still lots to do: see the interesting displays at Museo Nazionale dell'Automobile and get great views at Basilica of Superga.
