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.

For shopping fun, head to Reggia di Venaria Reale or Mercato Centrale Torino. Get out of town with these interesting Turin side-trips: Cantina del Glicine (in Neive) and Castello di Grinzane Cavour (in Grinzane Cavour). There's much more to do: get great views at Basilica of Superga, don't miss a visit to Piazza Castello, see where the action happens at Juventus Stadium, and examine the collection at Museo Nazionale dell'Automobile.

For where to stay, reviews, maps, and other tourist information, refer to the Turin trip planner.
