Must-Visit European Cities in Your Lifetime 🇮🇹 Turin

📍 Torino (Turin), Italy The capital of Italy’s Piedmont region and a key city in the Italian unification movement. As the former capital of the Kingdom of Italy, Turin blends Baroque architecture with modern industry, offering a mix of cultural heritage and contemporary vibes. It’s also home to the famous Shroud of Turin. Top Attractions 🌟 Mole Antonelliana Turin’s iconic landmark, originally a synagogue, now houses the National Cinema Museum. Take the elevator to the top for panoramic views of the city and the Alps—but beware the local legend: climbing it may bring bad luck in exams! 😉 Turin Cathedral (Cattedrale di San Giovanni Battista) Dedicated to St. John the Baptist, this cathedral is one of the resting places of the Shroud of Turin. While the shroud isn’t always on display, the exhibits here are fascinating. Chiesa di Santa Maria del Monte dei Cappuccini A 17th-century church on a hill east of the Po River, offering one of Turin’s best viewpoints. Perfect for sunrise or sunset, with stunning views of the city and the Alps. 🌄 Palazzo Carignano A Baroque masterpiece and a key site in Italy’s unification history. Now home to the National Museum of the Risorgimento. Egyptian Museum (Museo Egizio) The second-largest collection of Egyptian artifacts in the world (after Cairo)! A must-visit for history buffs, with incredible exhibits and displays. 🏺 Royal Palace (Palazzo Reale) The lavish former residence of the House of Savoy, filled with opulent decor and royal artifacts. Palazzo Madama A mix of medieval fortress and 18th-century palace, now hosting Turin’s Museum of Ancient Art, with Renaissance and Baroque masterpieces. Top Restaurants 🍴 Tre Galline A classic Piedmontese restaurant—try their braised beef, tripe, and porcini mushroom pasta! Pastificio Defilippis A century-old pasta shop and restaurant, a paradise for pasta lovers. 🍝 Caffè Al Bicerin Open since 1763, this historic café serves Bicerin—Turin’s signature layered drink of coffee, hot chocolate, and cream. ☕🍫 ⚠️ Images are from the blogger’s personal travels.
