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.

Eschew the tourist crowds and head to Marchesi di Barolo - Sede legale, magazzini e spedizioni and Civic Museum of Ancient Art (Palazzo Madama). Get a sense of the local culture at Museo Pietro Micca and Via Roma. You'll find plenty of places to visit near Turin: Serralunga d'Alba Castle (in Serralunga d'Alba) and Castello di Grinzane Cavour (in Grinzane Cavour). There's lots more to do: get engrossed in the history at Armeria Reale, pause for some serene contemplation at Santa Maria del Monte - Monte dei Cappuccini, and see the interesting displays at J Museum - Museo Della Juventus.
