Monday June 11th


Since most places are closed on Mondays and this was our last day touring around Turin it was going to be a very slow and easy day. So the first place we stopped by was Turin’s Cathedral Holy Shroud. We were not able to get inside but the place was still amazing from the outside. The   place made you feel like you were in the medieval times. Then made a quick trip to the Basilica of Sant’ Andrea which reminded us about the San Lorenzo home because it also had a very beautiful dome but not as complex as the other. Many religious paintings that just blew our minds away with very well designed architecture. Later, we visited souvenir shops to buy ourselves something to remember Turin by. For lunch we decided to go to Olsen cafĂ© which was quite fancy and very delightful. Then we decided to get some ice cream, so we visited the Gelateria Popolare. The place had one of the best ice creams we ever tasted and the prices were like way cheap! Then we went on our evening tour of Magic Turin. The tour was so awesome because we saw the city’s link to magic and occult. We loved how we got to see how it was linked to white and black magic. Some places were scary like the sculptures but the tour was still impressive.
