Turin is not a simple Italian town. This is a unique place in which every street, every lane keeps his own history, which I want to know. Every day, spent in the city, will become a real adventure and will be saved for a long time in your memory. That is the following Turin, ancient Italian town, which has a lot of advantages over the rest of Italy.
Next benefits, I mean, it is the historical monuments and sights of Turin, which in the city territory is simply a huge set. In addition, there are very diverse excursions and cultural and entertainment programs that will add to each tourist. For example, the Super Basilica is the main attraction of the city, or the Cathedral of John the Baptist, which stores the famous Turin Tourishment. The symbol of the city is the tower of Antonellian Mall, as well as the Royal Palace. The most popular tourist routes are the Egyptian Museum, the National Museum of Cinema, the Car Museum, the Museum of Puppet and the Museum of the National Association of Italy, as well as many others. But most of all, we liked antiquity monuments, such as the Palatine Gate and others. As well as magnificent castles: Palazzo Carignano, Valentino Castle, Palazzo Madama, Palazzo Real, Stupinji Castle, Castle Rakconiji, some of which are in the suburbs of Turin and are included in the UNESCO World Heritage List. It is a walk along the castles and the plants very exciting and impressive.
And all because the city has a very rich story, which began in the 28th year of our era, when the Castra Taurinorum military camp created on these shores. But we will not deepen into the history of the city, and it is better to talk about the peculiarities of rest in this wonderful town.
If we compare Turin with Bologna, then there is also a sufficiently large amount of rainfall here, because of the Mediterranean climate, but the greatest number of them fall on the spring and the first month of summer. But winter here is colder than in Bologna and Rome, and often accompanied by frosts and snowfall.
But the weather, perhaps, the only little lack of rest in Turin, because the city is also very beautiful from the point of view of natural resources, which you can not say about the same industrial city of Bologna, where there are nothing more than parks.
In Turin, on the contrary, this is the second dignity of the city after numerous monuments, castles and other attractions. During your stay here, we were in complete delight, because the city really pleased us with rest in the fresh air. First of all, the parks of the city are considered an excellent place: Orsira Rochawra, Gran Paradiso National Park, Park of the Park of the Park, Regional Park La Mandria. Here you can spend a great time, choosing from a stone city for hiking, which falls in the soul of romantic couples, families with children, and just lovers stroll through the air and admire natural beauty.
In Turin, there is also an excellent Bike Park Alpi Bike Resort, which offers routes of varying complexity for mountain bikes. But in the mountainous areas, tourists can enjoy climbing, alpine climbing, or simply spoil on mountain excursions in groups.
Many tourists who come to Turin immediately try to find more or less cheap establishments in which you can try all local culinary dishes, which are very popular among all residents of the city, even among the locals. Since Turin is known in the whole country with its culinary masterpieces. Almost all establishments offer a large selection of snacks, sausages and cheeses, meat dishes, first courses, as well as a large selection of wines, without which, no meals are received by the Italians. And, since Turin is not a very cheap city, cheap establishments will have to search. But here you can always look into small cafes and very colorful bars that offer excellent salads and snacks.
As for more sophisticated institutions, they are so much here that they don't even know which it is worth visiting the first. For example, Restaurant Le Antiche Sere, prepares unique dishes of Piedmont cuisine, which is considered exactly home, but the Marce Nostrum restaurant perfectly prepares dishes from seafood, and offers a daily new menu.
I would say that the expensive institutions of Turin are suitable for gourmet, and for ordinary tourists, all other institutions of the city offer no less delicious dishes, in a much lower price level. But it is in such establishments, tourists can feel real Italian flavor.
The same applies to city hotels, which are also a very large selection. The most inexpensive accommodation option is the hostel, the minimum price of which is about 30 euros. In the hostels, all rooms are clean, but for towels and breakfasts you need to pay separately. Although, we encountered such a surprise: in the hostels, the heating system is centralized, so it is simply turned off at night, so get ready for this in advance.
As for more expensive hotels, the cost of living per night is about 150 euros - this is the minimum price. I meant the 4-star Grand Hotel Sitea. Accordingly, that in hotels 2-3 stars prices are slightly lower, and the accommodation conditions are better than in hostels.
Turin is a great place to relax with children, because on its territory there are many restaurants with a children's menu, as well as interesting places of the city, which will be interested in children. For example, a car museum - for boys, or the Egyptian museum for all ages.
As for security in the city, I can say that this is not the safest Italian city, because there are a lot of pockets and thieves on mopeds that snatch bags and cameras directly from the hands. In addition, many tourists leave cameras, cameras and bags with money on automotive seats, which should not be done in Turin. It is also worth being careful in the districts of San Salvario and the port of Palazzo, as well as the Square of the Nuova port.
