📍 Destination Overview
Siena in Tuscany, built on three hills, is one of Italy's most perfect medieval cities. The shell-shaped Piazza del Campo hosts the famous Palio horse race each July and August, the heart of Sienese life. The cathedral's striped marble facade and inlaid floor are a Gothic masterpiece, and the UNESCO-listed old town charms with palaces and Tuscan cuisine.
