In Turin, the capital of the Piedmont region of northwest Italy, sports cars and chocolate are a matter of pride. The city is also home to the Museo Egizio, one of the most impressive collections of Egyptian artifacts in the world. A stroll around Piazza Castello and along the Via Roma encompasses many of the must-see sights. Valentino Park houses an 18th-century castle, botanic garden and medieval village. When you've worked up an appetite, sample casual trattorias for pastas, regional wines and coffees.

among the pillars of the arcades of Via Palazzo di Citta There is the smallest store in Turin. So small that it can only accommodate its owner: Antonio. An antiquarian with a Risorgimento appearance, Antonio exhibits (and rarely sells!) Ancient objects of various kinds, from the sacred to the profane. A unique and fun collection
Ancient views of a lost Turin, made magical by that very special light that only the prints have. Frames of refined taste, to encase with a touch of further beauty a "souvenir" of the time that was: maybe a map, a portrait, a bucolic scene. And then paintings, etchings, lithographs ... To enter from Dosio, in via XX Settembre 43, means to visit a real museum. We must really allow ourselves a "private visit" in this shop of the most intimate, real Turin, which this year is 170 years old: it was inaugurated, in fact, by Margherita Dosio in 1848, the year of the revolutions. Here everything has remained as it once was. It is not difficult to imagine that among these rooms some of the illustrious clients of the Dosio could stroll, starting from the royal family, to pass to men like Molino, Einaudi, Colombotto Rosso. Louis Armstrong also came during his stay in Turin in 1935.
