38)BRAND NEW CLOTHES IN TOWN
Italians are usually more accurate in choosing what to wear than other European people - that is our cliché. Going to Fresh Store you find two pleasant guys who have selected quality brands from the 80s, as well as sporting goods and a wide range of popular Made in Italy brands. Fresh is a trendy shop with a laid-back atmosphere. It’s fun to come by to look at the new arrivals, explore the shop, and find out that the owners are so passionate about music that they sponsor musical events in town as well.

36)INTERNATIONAL BOOKSHOP
As you can tell by its creaking wooden floor, Libreria Luxemburg is one of Turin’s oldest bookshops. You’ll find all sorts of books, newspapers and magazines, in many different languages. The bookshop also features an interesting Jewish section. Italy’s first national gay rights group, Fuori (Italian for “out”) started in 1971 in the living room of the owner of the bookshop.

35)PRESTIGIOUS MUSIC HALL
Piazza Bodoni is a meeting point for young people, since it’s very close to popular pubs and shopping streets Via Carlo Alberto and Via Lagrange. If you aren’t very interested in beer or shopping, Conservatorio Statale di Musica "Giuseppe Verdi" di Torino (Conservatory for music and art) has a rich schedule of music events (30 concerts in average per year) from November until 21st June, on the occasion of the Festa della Musica.
