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.

Get out of town with these interesting Turin side-trips: Azienda Vitivinicola Fontechiara (in Borgomanero), Cantine Costa Giuseppe (in Monta) and Reggia di Venaria Reale (in Venaria Reale). There's still lots to do: examine the collection at Museo Nazionale del Cinema, make a trip to Piazza Castello, take in nature's colorful creations at Parco del Valentino, and see where the action happens at Juventus Stadium.
