Turin is a town full history, art and culture, with a number of buildings with architectural styles ranging from the Roman to the Baroque, as well as splendid palaces and castles by the famous Sicilian architect Filippo Juvarra.
For nature lovers, Turin offers many green areas, including Parco del Valentino with its medieval village, a jump back to the feudal past.
Palazzo Madama, located in the geographic centre of the town, is a system of historical- architectural signs which tells you the story of Turin. Other main attractions are Mole Antonelliana, symbol of Turin and headquarters of the modern Museo Nazionale del Cinema.
And for those who love the nightlife, you can enjoy a sparkling evening at Quadrilatero Romano, not far from the city centre, sipping an aperitif before heading to one of the many trendy bars.
