About Siena
Siena is one of the most beautiful cities in the Tuscany region of Italy. Located in the north of Italy, Tuscany is located 70 km south of Florence. The historic city of Tuscany is on the UNESCO World Heritage list. To reach Siena, you have to go to Florence first. Siena, like many cities in Italy, is a wonderful city for walking. Strolling around the ancient streets is the best way to take in the beautiful architecture, and because most of the city is automobile-free, you will enjoy the absence of dirty air and car noises.
The historical tower is worth seeing in Siena; with a spectacular view of the city. One of Italy's greatest cathedrals, the Siena Duomo, is full of details. The interiors of Donatello, Bernini and Michelangeline, which are a mixture of Romanesque and Gothic architecture, are decorated with frescoes. Because it is in the center of Tuscany, the cuisine of this city is enriched with delicious meats, fresh vegetables and fragrant herbs. The dishes prepared with the best quality olive oil have an unique taste. As a traditional Siena dessert, Panforte has been made since 1200 years. This sweet is one of the oldest tastes of Tuscany. Finally, a trip to Siena would not be complete without visiting Medicea Castle and enjoying a wine-tasting excursion.
