About Turin
City overview
Turin is Italy's elegant secret — the Savoy dynasty's capital of arcaded boulevards and Baroque piazzas at the foot of the Alps, holding the world's most important Egyptian collection outside Cairo and the cinema-museum spire that defines its skyline. It invented solid chocolate, vermouth, and the aperitivo, and it still takes all three seriously every evening under 18 kilometres of porticoes.
Food & drink
Piedmont's table is Italy's most serious: agnolotti del plin, vitello tonnato, bagna cauda, tajarin under Alba truffles, and Barolo and Barbaresco from an hour south. Turin itself invented gianduja chocolate and the bicerin — espresso, cocoa, and cream layered in a glass — and the 6pm aperitivo with a groaning buffet is a civic institution.
Top sights
- 1
Mole Antonelliana / National Cinema Museum
indoorThe 167-metre spire on every Turin postcard, filled by a five-floor cinema museum — the glass panoramic lift rises straight through the dome's open interior to an Alps-to-Apennines view.
The lift sells out on clear days; book museum + lift together.
- 2
Palazzo Reale and the Musei Reali
indoorThe Savoy royal palace complex on Piazza Castello — state apartments, the Armeria's mounted knights, the Chapel of the Holy Shroud's restored Guarini dome, and the Galleria Sabauda's old masters on one ticket.
- 3
Basilica of Superga
mixedJuvarra's 1731 hilltop basilica facing the full Alpine arc — reached by the 1884 rack tramway from Sassi. The Savoy royal tombs are below; the dome climb gives the definitive city panorama.

Day trips
65km / 1h by car or train to Alba
Langhe wine country (Alba / Barolo)
The UNESCO vineyard hills of Barolo and Barbaresco — tastings in castle villages, and white-truffle season each October-November in Alba.
40km / 45min by car
Sacra di San Michele
The thousand-year-old abbey bolted to a rock pinnacle at the mouth of the Susa Valley — the inspiration for "The Name of the Rose" and the symbol of Piedmont.
Getting around
The centro is flat and walkable under its porticoes; a single metro line, trams, and the Sassi-Superga rack tramway cover the rest. Trains from Porta Nuova reach Alba and the valleys.
