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.

Step out of the city life by going to Pila Ski Resort and Vialattea. Get a sense of the local culture at Castello e Parco di Masino and Castello Reale di Sarre. Change things up with these side-trips from Turin: Santuario Basilica di Montis Regalis (in Vicoforte), Castello della Manta (in Manta) and Verres Castle (in Verres). There's still lots to do: explore the historical opulence of Castello di Issogne, see the interesting displays at Museo Nazionale del Cinema, take in the architecture and atmosphere at Santuario Basilica Maria Ausiliatrice, and don't miss a visit to Piazza Castello.
