Curiosities of the city<\/span><\/h2>\n

The Historic Caf\u00e9s<\/span><\/h3>\n

Turin has kept historic caf\u00e9s dating back to the 19th century, decorated with old mirrors, tapestries, woodwork, porcelain, where you can of course enjoy the famous beverage and the typical pastries of the city. These include the caf\u00e9s around Piazza Castello: Caff\u00e8 Mulassano<\/strong> and Caff\u00e8 Confetteria Baratti & Milano<\/strong>, and around Piazza San Carlo: Caff\u00e8 San Carlo<\/strong> and Caff\u00e8 Torino<\/strong> (read the list in the comment here<\/a>).<\/p>\n

The Covered Galleries<\/span><\/h3>\n

Connecting squares and streets by crossing through palaces, these Art Nouveau-style galleries in Turin are covered with glass, reminiscent of the typical covered passages of Paris. They are occupied by caf\u00e9s and restaurants. There are three of them: the Galleria Subalpina<\/strong> between the south-east corner of Piazza Castello and Piazza Carlo Alberto, the Galleria San Federico<\/strong> just north of Piazza San Carlo and the Galleria Umberto I<\/strong> leading to Piazza della Repubblica.<\/p>\n\n\t\t
