Palace of Venaria - If you come to Turin The Reggia di Venaria is a must-see. I recommend taking the Turin card with which you enter for free in all museums and royal palaces. The palace is more beautiful than the Royal Palace. I recommend adding € 6 ticket and take the guide otherwise you do not understand the beauty of the interior. Such a ticket It can be purchased on site.

Turin Treasure - Made a quick decision to make a visit here, which was well worth it. We covered the whole house & gardens, which was really worth it. History of the house & what it has seen was a revelation, early flight was unexpected, the use by the military & then the decline, from which it has recovered to be a stunning place to visit. The Long hall was so eye catching, please take a look at the various pieces of decoration along the hall, some will make you laugh. Then we spent time in the Gardens, which with the mountain backdrop are just awesome & make for some great photos. As it was open to 7pm, we made the most of the warm evening, spending time sitting by the lake. A great day out.

So many things to see. - The Palace itself is interesting, but, not to be missed, the temporary exhibition "Magnificent collections". Important works from the national museums of Genoa, from the Spinola Palace of Fur and others. Works by Rubens, Van Dyck, Gentileschi (Orazio), Guido Reni are on display. Maratta. Giordano and others. Beautiful Mood with tinted windows that allows you to see the depths of the paintings. I really appreciated it. Less interesting is that of modern art that can be visited in the Citroneria dedicated to the works of Anthony Mc Call "Solid Light" where some of his light sculptures are presented. It's my limit, but I didn't appreciate it. In the tour you can see on display the Throne of the restored Royal Palace of Naples, this one in the Queen's Parade Chamber. In Diana's room you can see a Multimedia installation entitled "Frames" that I honestly did not look at, while to see are the 64 ink drawings of the 70s by Francesco Tullio Altan always exhibited in the room of the Arts. In the Gardens you can admire various art installations. It's worth the time and expense.

Good work of recovery - The rooms are bare and besides the gardens and the central lounge, the rest is disappointing. Restoration fruit very important. Beautiful church and stables

Savoy residence - It is one of many Savoy residences, an immense palace as well as the park that surrounds it. Over the years, buildings have been added by Filippo Juvarra and other architects. For years it has been a restoration work and today it is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The interior is a bit bare because the French destroyed some buildings. After the arrival of Napoleon it became barracks and in the gardens horses and cannons replaced the flower beds. Once the military garrison was removed, the Palace was prey to vandals, who stripped it of its beauty. Today the stables are beautiful and the bucintoro is beautiful. The garden of the Royal Palace was voted the most beautiful public park in Italy in 2019.   .

Great work of recovery - Lovely palace. Amazing architectural recovery work that was done (well documented inside). I reached the palace from the center of Turin using the normal bus network. I would not recommend the Venaria express for the cost of the ticket and for reduced hours. If you have purchased a ticket to see the Castle of the Herd, you should know that they are almost 3 km from each other and there is no transport. I recommend renting an e-bike or a simple bicycle (at a modest price) near the entrance of the Palace and enjoy a nice bike ride. You can do various routes that also have riding stables and refreshment points.

Maestoso - The place is very nice and especially very large. The full visit can take several hours. It is always worth booking the guided tour. The paths along the rooms are unclear and you can easily "lose" them. If you accidentally skip some rooms you can no longer go back because you are prevented. The park is very large and can accommodate thousands of visitors. The bar is a nightmare, better to arrive already with what you need. The advice is to visit calmly and enjoy the beauty of the place.
