Wait! Before you book your ticket to Rome, discover Turin! There's so much more to Italy than just Rome, Venice, and Florence. While these destinations are classics, there’s a whole other side of Italia waiting to be discovered, beyond its huddled, tourist-filled metropolises.
Turin's been overlooked for far too long - you'll see why when you download this book!
Not only is Turin Italy’s first capital, it’s also famous for its chocolate, unearthly gastronomy, and white truffles (tartufi bianchi). After spending nearly three years in this magnificent Italian city, I couldn’t help but share it with you and the world! You’ll have plenty of opportunities to explore Turin’s narrow alleyways, little-known landmarks and even discover secret spots.
Turin, or Torino in Italian, won’t be little-known for long! There’s so much to love about Turin; the city is endowed with clean, magnificent streets that inspire, and small artisan shops that lend authentic charm to this urban Italian environment. Plus, you’ll never feel like you’re elbow-to-elbow with other tourists as you may in Venice and parts of Rome (for now)!
Turin was once synonymous with industry and gray skies due to the city being the epicenter of the automobile in Italy. Now, it’s a completely different scene; the sky shines bright (even if a little hazy from pollution). And actually, before the Industrial Revolution shaped the heart of the city, Turin was once Italy’s first capital. As you may be aware, Turin recently hosted the Olympics in 2006, too. So there’s plenty of development, evolution, and historical precedence woven into the history of this city.
The gray skies once cast over Turin are now clear and sunny. The stunning architectural feats, the arts, and the gastronomy will inspire.
As you’ll discover, Turin is a city full of color and vibrancy. From the picturesque cityscape dominated by the Mole to the buzzing food scene (if you do make your way to Piemonte, your perception of pasta will be forever changed. A common dish in this region is pasta with butter — it may not be what you’re used to, but believe me — it’s delicious!) and many lively events that cater to this thriving cultural hub.
While Turin may not have been on your Italian bucket list, it’s my hope that after reading this guide, you make it a point to book a train ticket (only one-hour with Italo, and two hours by bus or the local commuter train from Milan and Genova) to see all that the “Paris of Italy” has to offer. Turin is truly a one-of-a-kind destination. There’s so much history, art, and beauty hiding within her walls.
You’ll discover:
Enjoy your own unique Taste of Turin now while you still have the chance — a place this charming can’t stay hidden forever. Luckily, you have access to all the best spots to see in Turin (some of which are unknown even to locals). I hope your stay in Turin is magical rather than ordinary after reading this guide.
