This Underrated Italian City Boasts Indulgent Food & Captivating Views For A Romantic Escape

A trip to Italy is on many travelers' wishlists of destinations to see. The grand Roman Colosseum in Rome, the picturesque canals in Venice, the towering Duomo in Florence, and not to mention the mouthwatering food scene in Naples. Although popular, and for good reason, why not get off the tourist trail this summer and set foot in the city of Turin, or Turino as it's known to Italian locals? This underrated tourist destination in Italy is home to incredible food, and is the perfect romantic escape boasting stunning views.

Visit Italy just launched their brand new "99% of Italy" travel campaign, urging tourists to see the other areas of Italy and not only visit the 1% of the country, which is Rome, Florence, Venice, Naples and Cinque Terre. While all of these places are stunning and hold historical significance for Italy, Visit Italy is hoping the campaign will shed light on lesser known areas in Italy, and spotlight some hidden gems that could benefit from extra tourism.

Turin offers visitors everything you'd expect from Italy, fantastic restaurants, delicious food, rich history, and charming, cozy side streets. But unlike the more famous cities and towns, it remains off the beaten path, so you can enjoy all these treasures without the crowds, making it one of the best Italian destinations to add to your bucket list .
