I've been several times in Piedmont, and some just passing through. For the capital Turin and its province, I refer you to "Piedmont-Turin" and "Piedmont-Turin Olympic.
Not long ago I went to the Langhe with a trip by bus, which provided as a first step Acqui Terme famous for its hot springs where we visited over the old town, which also archaeological traces, even some wineries that produces wines such as Brachetto. We slept in a luxury hotel right in the central square and the next morning through a road between the vineyards we reached a medieval castle perched on a hill and surrounded by a dense fog.
Subsequently, through Canelli, went to Alba, famous for truffles, but also presents a historical old town, and then again in the heart of the Langhe region to visit a manufacturer of fine wines. Returning then to Acqui Terme to stay at the hotel.
The day after lunch in a typical restaurant and return home.
Other times I have visited places of Piedmont, in '89 I reached for comment Saluzzo of international competitions in swimming and took the opportunity to walk in the center of town.
Further north were several times both in Vercelli to Novara to comment on hockey games track. Particularly during a one-week stay in Vercelli for the European championship in hockey track I had the opportunity to go on bus, stop in Biella to Santuario di Oropa surrounded by a forest that invites contemplation. Also during that week I went by bus to the Sacred Mountain of Varallo Sesia. Here was already a child with my mother during a tourist trip and I was impressed by the mountain where they were placed where chapels were reconstructed scenes with statues of the Gospel. That trip also took us to see the Lago d'Orta, where we took a boat to the lake island of San Giulio.
The return of a journey with South Germany and Switzerland, crossing the Simplon Pass, passing Domodossola and reached Macugnaga where overnight in hotel.
Of the two nights in a hotel in Asti and short visit to his old town I have already spoken in "Piedmont-Turin Olympic.
