Italy's "Little Versailles" - Turin Royal Palace 🏰✨

Admission Tickets 🎫: If you're 25 years old or younger, you can get a ticket for just 2 euros (from June 15th to September 15th, the price increases by one euro), and the full ticket is 15 euros. I personally prefer not to book tickets online because the physical tickets you buy on-site are different and have great collectible value. 🎟️ Transportation 🚃: Take bus number 11 from Porta Nuova to Duomo-Musei Reali, then walk for 7 minutes to arrive. Alternatively, take tram number 4 from Porta Nuova to Duomo-Musei Reali, and walk for 7 minutes to reach the palace. Regarding the nickname "Little Versailles" for this guide, it originated from an Italian who noticed the garden's (🆓 free) greenery design, which is similar to the grand Versailles in France. Similarly, there is a "Hall of Mirrors" in this palace. While strolling in the garden with this Italian, she mentioned "Little Versailles," and I recently visited again with this story in mind. Playing a "spot the differences" game, I re-experienced the palace. Compared to Turin's popular hotspot, the Egyptian Museum, this place is much quieter. I'm not sure if it's just the timing of my visits, but each time I feel like I have the entire palace to myself, which makes my happiness index soar. 😊 My personal favorite room is the dining room, which has a café room right in front of it. Every time I pass by, I marvel at the extravagant lifestyle of the royals - a room just for breakfast, another for lunch and dinner, and even a separate room for coffee. Having a big house is really great. ☕ Including my most recent visit, I've been here more than five times. Each visit brings different moods and feelings, making me feel that the ticket price is well worth it. Although this palace belongs to the House of Savoy, it was built in the 17th century for Madame Christine Marie of France. This explains the origin of the name "Little Versailles." Finally, I want to say that Turin may not be a "classic" must-visit destination in Italy compared to Florence, Milan, Rome, and Venice, which are more renowned. However, if you have the chance to visit, it will give you a completely new experience. 🌟 #Italy #TurinItaly #TurinRoyalPalace #Versailles #Garden
