Turin
#22
I visited Turin partly because of a TR here (stayed in Townhose 70, too). One day is a really short visit, especially if you want to relax! But lots of good cafes to relax in. Maybe you could add a day?

Thanks, when I say relax I should say, maybe re-group. After a long flight didn't want to travel far when arriving, and didn't want to stay in Milan again. I know one and half days is not a lot of time, but Turin was not even on the original Itinerary. I look at it now as a big plus to the vacation. Cannot add a day since all hotels and flights are booked.

We visited the market - OK but a lot of bric-a-brac and junk.
Highlights of our visit were the Egyptian museum and Eataly. But we had a car, so could stock up!
We had a nice meal and very nice wine at Signorvino - it's a restaurant and wine shop. Very casual.

I spent about three nights in Turin on a trip to Piemonte a while back. Here is my report. It is a beautiful city with great food and gorgeous architecture. And lots of chocolate!!
