Top Architecture in Turin

If you're a fan of photography, aim to be up top by 6 PM. The sunset over Turin is stunning and you’ll get some great shots!

I suggest buying your tickets online ahead of time. I waited in line for almost 30 minutes, but skipping that would have been a lifesaver!

Check the weather for the day you plan to go. The view from the top is amazing, but I went when it was cloudy and missed out on great photos!

My advice is to grab a gelato from a local shop nearby after your visit. It's a great way to unwind and enjoy the city ambiance!

Try to visit on a Saturday morning; that's when the market is most vibrant and bustling with local vendors. It's an experience you won't want to miss!

Be mindful of your belongings. It can get crowded, especially during peak times, so keep an eye on your bags.

Don’t forget to taste the local street food. I loved the arancini and other snacks; they were delicious and budget-friendly.

Some areas have limited access, so check the map at the entrance. I missed parts of the gardens which were beautiful. Plan ahead!

I think it's worth spending some time in the gardens—grab a bench to relax! I rushed past and missed such a nice spot to unwind.

If you want to beat the crowds, try visiting on a Tuesday morning around 10 AM. I went later in the day and it was packed!

I suggest grabbing a snack from the cafe instead of venturing into the city before your visit... Prices there are totally reasonable and it saves time

If you're planning to take photos, go around 5 PM for that golden hour light. The views are stunning and less crowded then. Seriously, it makes a big difference.

I suggest grabbing a coffee at one of the local cafes before you start your exploring. The vibe is chill, and it's the perfet way to soak in the atmosphere.

If you're into architecture, don’t rush your visit! Take your time around the square; I think an hour is good to just admire the buildings and snap some photos without feeling hurried.

Watch out for the street performers! Some can be really good, but I recommend double-checking if they pass the hat afterwards to avoid awkward situations.

Don’t miss the stables! They’re easy to overlook, but they have some neat exhibits and weren't packed when I visited, so I got some great pictures.

bring a light picnic! the gardens are beautiful, and it's nice to sit and munch while enjoying the scenery. just make sure to clean up afterward

Grab a quick breakfast or coffee from nearby cafes before your visit. It helps fuel your exploration, and you'll have the energy to soak it all in without rushing.

Watch the sunset from the nearby hills after your visit. The view of the church against the sunset is absolutely stunning. It was the highlight of my day!

If you can, visit early in the morning, around 9 AM. It's way less crowded, and you can enjoy the peaceful atmosphere without any distractions. I got some great photos without all the people in the way!

Bring a small change for candles if you’d like to light one. It’s a lovely way to partake in the local tradition and it adds a nice touch to your visit.

Wear comfy shoes! You might end up walking around longer than planned, as the square is a fantastic starting point to explore surrounding streets.

Bring a light snack or picnic! There’s a lovely vibe, and you can soak in the atmosphere while saving some cash instead of hitting expensive cafes nearby
