Friday June 8th
Since we are halfway done visiting Turin for the week we have, we wanted to keep visiting as many places as possible. So our first destination of the day was the Civic museum of Ancient Art. Although it is a museum of art (which we enjoyed watching), it was also once a castle. We got to go in one of the towers which offered a beautiful view. The rooms, halls, and stairways were just as beautiful as the outside view. The best part about coming here was being able o dress up with swords and armor. After this we went to our Turin Underground Tour which lasted about three hours. The place was very awesome but at the same time creepy. The tour guide told us about mysteries that happened in certain locations and also unsolved murders that happened down here. We really liked this place because it made us feel like we were in the past just by walking in this ancient area. Later for lunch we ate at this restaurant called Amici miei which served really great Italian food. To finish our day we took a visit to Piazza of San Carlo. On either side of the piazza are two churches, San Lorenzo and Santo Christina. There is also a palace and a couple of boutiques, restaurants, and cafés. The famous café we visited was the San Lorenzo one.
