The New York Times and The Guardian named it as one of the cities to visit at least once in a lifetime. The Financial Times called it a hybrid between Paris and Vienna, but Turin has a spirit all its own, which can be found in every street and monument. Intrinsically linked to the Savoy dynasty, the first capital of Italy is home to an incredibly elegant Royal Palace. As the most important of the Savoy residences, it served as the stage for many historic events for at least three centuries. Alongside your tour guide, visit the rooms where the kings lived for almost a century, from the throne room to the chamber where the Statuto Albertino was signed. Next is the ballroom, where countless social events, parties and ceremonies were hosted. Finally, arrive at the Baroque Chapel built to house the Shroud of Turin, the sheet used to wrap the body of Jesus in the Sepulchre. An entrancing journey back in time to discover the treasures of the past.
