52 Places to Go in 2016
It’s a big world out there, so we’ve narrowed it down for you. From ancient temples to crystalline waters, here are our top destinations to visit this year.
31. Turin - Italy
Renewal in a former industrial capital.
A reopened
Egyptian Museum isn’t the only draw in Turin, where projects like the warehouse district Docks Dora, home to galleries, ateliers and underground clubs; the street art initiative
Arte in Barriera; and Lavazza’s new headquarters in Aurora near Porta Palazzo, Europe’s largest open-air market, are softening an industrial face. Fresh exhibition spaces and museums (
CAMERA – Italian Center for Photography and
Museo Ettore Fico) complement Contemporary Art Week, comprising
Artissima, Paratissima and Luci d’Artista. The concurrent
Club to Club is one of many music festivals (
Torino Jazz,
Kappa Futur,
TODAYS,
Movement Torino). The city, which is home to Slow Food’s annual Salone del Gusto, is also a jumping-off point for the Unesco world heritage-designated wine regions
Langhe-Roero and Monferrato.
