SIENNA - Sienna (Siena in Italian) lives around its notorious Palio, a horse racing, that takes place twice a year in the main stunning square, called Piazza del Campo. Artistic and culinary traditions live together in one of the most beautiful city of this area. You can not miss an excursion in the countryside nearby through the typical tuscany town like: Scansano, Montalcino, Pienza, and all the Chianti territory. Walking along the street inside Siena, you can find many tourist attractions: such as the Duomo and other renaissance palaces.

This amazing town is one of the most charming villages in Italy. Dominated by its many towers, it is full of art treasures such as the churches of St. James and St. Peter (where there are frescoes by Benozzo Gozzoli and Taddeo di Bartolo) and the Palazzo del Popolo.
