Famous for the Turin Shroud, it was once the capital of Italy and continues to tell of the dark struggles of good against evil.

Places to visit while here might include the Palazzo Reale, the Piazza Castello with its many cafes and bars and the Duomo. The Duomo or the San Giovanni Battista housed the Holy Shroud until a recent fire meant it was removed to safety. It is in the dark and seemingly dreary centre of the city that you will get to grips with the historic roots of Turin.

Fancy a different type of dining experience? Look no further than Turin's Tram Restaurant. The dinner journey is slightly shorter than lunch at three hours long. Book well in advance as this local dining novelty is extremely popular.

Prepare yourself to enter a darker world of Turin. Book onto ‘The Magic of Turin’ tour to find out more. An official centre for witchcraft, you will discover the site where black masses are held. It is in the district of the church of San Domenico that the Inquisition was held and therefore a place of untold suffering and torture at one time or another. It is here that there is a frequent theft of holy water. The tour begins on a dark note but then crosses over to the good side as it leaves Turin's Satanist goings-on behind and allows good to prevail over evil.
