Turin’s Museo Egizio (Egyptian Museum) is revered globally for its vast collection of Egyptian antiquities and academic research credentials.

Turin Cathedral, or Cathedral of St. John the Baptist (Duomo di Torino), is a Roman Catholic cathedral in Turin. It is the seat of the Archbishops of Turin. It was built during 1491–1498, adjacent to a bell tower which had been built in 1470. The Chapel of the Holy Shroud (the current location of the Shroud of Turin) was added to the structure in 1668–1694.

Turin is located in the northwest corner of Italy.

Minicars are a common sight in Turin, as well as in the rest of Italy. Often slower than full-size cars, they are the only cars that 14-year-old drivers are allowed to operate. A benefit of their small size is the ability to find a parking space more easily.

Mole Antonelliana towers above the skyline of Turin. An architectural landmark of the city of Turin, it was initially conceived as a synagogue. It now houses the National Cinema Museum. With a height of 167.5 metres, it was the tallest brick building in Europe at the time it was completed in 1889.
