Hello, torino

Turin, Italy's first capital, is a city awash with history, green parks, and art, not to mention that it is a town with renowned food and even better drinks. Under the arcades of the city centre, there are countless wine bars, grandiose continental cafés, and lively bars and restaurants, all just steps away from luxury shopping streets. Even if it is mostly known abroad for Fiat and Juventus, Turin is a fascinating metropolis with its eyes set firmly on the future, thanks to its young population and great universities.

Piazza Vittorio Veneto

Piazza Vittorio is the main square of the city, and the biggest in Europe completely surrounded by arcades. It is located at the end of Via Po, overlooking the river and the bizarre church Gran Madre. Under its arches, the square houses restaurants, cafés and bars of all sorts, and by night it turns into one of the centres of Turin's movida. Don't miss a visit here by night, even just to admire its splendour enhanced by lights and shadows on the facades surrounding the square.

National Museum of Automobile

The National Museum of Automobile was founded in 1933, becoming one of the first automotive museums in the world. It hosts a very rare and fine collection of cars from Italy, France, Great Britain, Germany, the Netherlands, Spain, the US and Poland. The exposition displays the brands of the past and present dating back to the middle of the 19th century, reaching approximately 200 models.

Piazza San Carlo

Piazza San Carlo is one of the most important squares in Turin's history. It is located between Porta Nuova and Via Roma. During the 19th and 20th centuries, it used to be the main meeting point for the elites and aristocracy, and the refinement of those days is still plain to see. In the background, you can also admire the (almost-) twin churches, which can seem to be identical at first sight. Spend some time trying to spot all the differences.

Palazzo Madama

Palazzo Madama is one of the historic buildings of Piazza Castello, together with the Royal Palace. The layers of history that from this palace are extraordinary. At the beginning of the first century BC, the site of the palace was occupied by a gate in the Roman city walls. The two restored towers still testify to this original nucleus. The back of the palace looks like a medieval stronghold, while the ornate facade was added by the Savoy family to better match the overall look of the square. Today it houses the Museum of Ancient Arts, with its impressive collection of paintings.
