Siena is a walled city in Tuscany, known for its cuisine, art, museums, medieval cityscape and a colourful horse race, Il Palio, conducted twice each year in the summer. Siena's centro storico, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is extremely picturesque, and from high towers, you can see the beautiful countryside that still largely surrounds the city.

About Siena
Siena is a walled city in Tuscany, known for its cuisine, art, museums, medieval cityscape and a colourful horse race, Il Palio, conducted twice each year in the summer. Siena's centro storico, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is extremely picturesque, and from high towers, you can see the beautiful countryside that still largely surrounds the city. With a few notable exceptions (including the pretty yellow colour of the sunflowers that are cultivated for oil for export), the Sienese countryside looks almost the same as it did in Medieval paintings. Siena is 70 km (43 mi) south of Florence.
