5 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.

Appreciate the collections at Museo Nazionale del Cinema and Museo Nazionale dell'Automobile. Eschew the tourist crowds and head to Castello di Issogne and Museo del Carcere Le Nuove. Get out of town with these interesting Turin side-trips: Santuario Basilica di Montis Regalis (in Vicoforte), Castello della Manta (in Manta) and Pila (in Gressan). And it doesn't end there: step into the grandiose world of Castello e Parco di Masino, make a trip to Piazza Castello, tour the pleasant surroundings at Via Lattea, and pause for some serene contemplation at Basilica di Maria Ausiliatrice.
