Explore Turin's surroundings by going to Sacra di San Michele (in Sant'Ambrogio di Torino), Lake Orta (in Orta San Giulio) and Serravalle Designer Outlet (in Serravalle Scrivia). There's still lots to do: see the interesting displays at Museo Nazionale del Cinema and make a trip to Piazza Castello.
