Turin’s Borgo Medievale (Medieval Village) at Valentino park, by Jim Linwood
Turin’s famous for Renaissance architecture, and the Cathedral, dedicated to Saint John the Baptist, is as representative as they come! Turin was previously considered the Hollywood of Italy, and a visit to the National Cinema museum will be most enlightening!
For lovers of contemporary art, the ‘Galleria d’Arte Moderna e Contemporanea (the Gallery of Modern and Contemporary Art) (GAM) and Castello di Rivoli (Rivoli Castle) are must-visits. These should be followed by a well-deserved coffee break at the Caffe’ Baratti e Milano, Al Bicerin or Florio, to mention but only three of Turin’s historic and cultural coffee shops dating from the 1700s.
These are only a few of the article’s suggestions on Turin, and other ideas include a museum on Egyptology, religious loci and even palaces!
The article also suggests a type of pass for entry to a variety of attractions, and even an itinerary for chocaholics!
So, if you find yourself in Turin, make sure you allow sufficient time for visiting these tourist gems!
