Turin, Italy, is PACKED with things to see and do, whether you’re visiting for the history, art, architecture, food, wine, chocolate, coffee, or bicerin (a sweet coffee treat explained in the video!). To quote one of our viewers: “Turin would be a top tourist destination in any country except Italy.” We couldn’t have said it better.
The first capital of Italy and the capital of the Piedmont region, Turin (or Torino in Italiano) is grand and elegant, with its spacious piazzas, Baroque architecture, extensive arcades, and Art Nouveau-era cafes. It’s also an Italian industrial powerhouse, home to such world-renowned companies as Fiat, Ferrero (Nutella), and Lavazza.
In this video, we check out Turin’s top sights (including the iconic Mole Antonelliana) and spend some time with Davide of Podcast Italiano on Youtube. Davide shows us around his city, from the ugliest building to the prettiest viewpoint.

You know Turin would be a top tourist destination in any country except Italy. 😮
great video guide🙂
Fantastic – it's great to see you doing anime crossovers with other famous YouTubers.
I live an hour away. Im lower Piedmont. Turin is great but when in Italy Turin is certainly falls among the bottom 10 or even 20. Checking out your videos guys. Great work
