Siena

Siena is Tuscany’s second city rivalling Florence for Renaissance palazzi, art treasures and breathtaking beauty.

Siena possesses Europe’s finest medieval square, scene of the Palio horse race, Italy’s most dramatic historical spectacle. Its cathedral is central Italy’s most beautiful, and the art in the many churches, galleries and museums would keep you busy for weeks.

Above all, though, the city is an intimate and civilised place – a place “a misura dell’uomo”, or “made to the measure of man”, as the Italians have it – and its sleepy, honey-stoned streets are in stark Medieval contrast to Florence’s flamboyant Renaissance.
