The Torinese demand for shopping "en plein air" is amply met by the number and variety of its markets: more than 60 open-air venues to browse, happen upon objects from the past, surrounded by colour and atmosphere. Aficionados seek out Porta Palazzo, Europe's biggest open-air market, or the Balôn in Borgo Dora: a mega Saturday flea and antiques market with an extra date on the second Sunday every month. Don't miss them if you want to get to the heart of Turin.
