Product Description
In this first edition of Time Out Turin, resident writers guide readers through the city?s most seductive artistic landmarks, including architect Renzo Piano?s "bubble" atop a classic Fiat building and the dramatic Sandretto Re Rebaudengo exhibition space. Here too is Europe?s largest cinema museum in Italy?s pointiest building. But the guide goes further afield, to the glorious countryside of the surrounding Piedmonte region, detailing exquisite wineries in Barolo, Nebbiolo, and Barbaresco, along with the best skiing destinations. A full range of accommodations, from charming pensiones to glamorous villas, is profiled, along with dining options for all budgets.

Summary: Essential Turin handbook 2006-11-11
Comment: My husband and I nearly wore out this book during our two-week trip to Torino for the 2006 Winter Olympics. The writing and photos are hipper and more sophistocated than the typical travel book. And it's all contained in a thin, well-organized package that practically fits in your pocket. It offers concise suggestions for hip clubs, out-of-the-way restaurants and bars and other attractions that made us feel like virtual-locals.
