About Siena Province
Step back into medieval Italy with a trip to Siena. The city is famous for its contrade, the maze-like historic districts that haven’t changed a beat in over a hundred years. Join the crowds in July and August when Siena’s famous Palio horserace thunders around the Piazza del Campo, or visit outside of the peak summer months for a calmer experience. Siena, rich in tradition, is also a great spot...
