Sienne est une jolie ville vallonnée avec l'une des plus belles places d'Italie (Piazza del Campo), la deuxième plus haute tour d'Italie (Torre del Mangia) et le Duomo (cathédrale) le plus impressionnant. L'intérieur du Duomo est absolument époustouflant. C'est une ville qui regorge d'églises, de musées et offre de superbes vues sur la campagne environnante.La Piazza del Campo est célèbre pour le Palio, une course de chevaux sans merci qui s'y déroule deux fois par an. Ces courses opposent les 17 quartiers différents de Sienne. L'intérieur du Duomo ressemble à un musée avec ses piliers de marbre noir et blanc, ses panneaux de sol en marbre finement travaillés, ses magnifiques fresques de la Renaissance, son immense dôme en bronze et une sculpture de saint François. Pierre par Michel-Ange. Parmi les villes médiévales italiennes à voir au moins une fois dans sa vie, San Gimignano occupe à juste titre une place de choix : un joyau toscan à l'histoire fascinante qui remonte à la préhistoire et atteint son apogée au Moyen Âge.
Rome represents the starting point but also the end of the tour, because there will be 2 hours of driving time to get in Siena, and then 2 hours and half to come back from San Giminiano to your accommodation

Siena Cathedral, rising majestically in the eponymous city square, is one of Italy’s most illustrious Romanesque and Gothic cathedrals. According to tradition, the present Cathedral replaces an earlier church dedicated to the Virgin Mary erected in the 9th century or thereabouts on the site of a temple serving the cult of Minerva

Located in Piazza del Campo, also known as the symbol of Siena, the tower was built between 1338 and 1348, constructed in brick with a stone cornice and belfry, boasting a light and elegant structure that takes its name from its first bell ringer. Giovanni di Balduccio was famous because he wasted his money, especially on good food, and was nicknamed Mangiaquisti, literally Earnings Eater, abbreviated to 'Mangia': his role didn't last long because in 1360, the first mechanic clock was installed, but the nickname was forever associated with the tower.
