Turin Highlights
Turin rests in regal charm beside the pretty River Po. Touting itself as Europe's capital of baroque, the city has the air of a capital manqué rather than a provincial outpost. Though much of the suburban sprawl is less than picturesque, there's an enormous green belt with views of the Alps east of the river.
Turin has more than its fair share of rain and fog in winter, with temperatures rarely breaking into double figures. The rain remains constant outside winter, though mild temperatures are usual between May and September.
