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.

Forte di Bard and Museo Nazionale del Cinema will appeal to museum buffs. Do some cultural sightseeing at Basilica di Superga and Castello di Grinzane Cavour. Get out of town with these interesting Turin side-trips: Palazzina di Caccia di Stupinigi (in Stupinigi), Lake Orta (in Orta San Giulio) and Castello di Fenis (in Fenis). There's much more to do: view the masterpieces at Reggia di Venaria Reale, examine the collection at Civic Museum of Ancient Art (Palazzo Madama), make a trip to Piazza San Carlo, and explore and take pictures at Juventus Stadium.
