Make your first stop the outstanding Egyptian Museum (second only to the one in Cairo). Wander through the streets and piazzas with their baroque palaces and quaint churches, but make time for shopping in the 18th Century arcades, perhaps stopping to enjoy the famous coffee and chocolates the city prides itself on.

 Piedmont [ of which Turin is the regional capital ]
The Region stretches on the buttress of a great Alpine arc: Maritime, Cotian, Graian, Pennine Alps and a little part of the Lepontine Alps. It includes two large hilly areas, the Langhe and the Monferrato. The Po river has its source in Piedmont. The region is crossed by several Alpine streams flowing into the Po. Many Alpine lakes , with those of the morainic area of the Canavese, dot the region. In the eastern part, we find two bigger lakes: Lago Maggiore and Lago d'Orta.
