4 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 a sense of the local culture at Castello di Grinzane Cavour and Castello Reale di Sarre. Visit Santuario della Nativita di Maria and Criptoportico Forense for their historical value. Venture out of the city with trips to Santuario di Oropa (in Oropa), Vicolungo The Style Outlets (in Vicolungo) and Ricetto di Candelo (in Candelo). And it doesn't end there: explore the historical opulence of Castel Savoia, don't miss a visit to Via Roma, pause for some serene contemplation at Basilica di Superga, and identify plant and animal life at Parco Nazionale Gran Paradiso.
