Siena Hotels, Sightseeing, Activities & Attractions, Restaurants, Weather 

Siena is about as close as you'll get to the perfect medieval city. It even stages the perfect medieval spectacle: the Palio, a breathtaking horse race around the Campo Square that takes place twice each summer on 2 July and 16 August.
The only sensible way to get around Siena's walled, largely car-free centre is on foot. All roads eventually lead to the Campo Square, so it's best to follow your nose (or the signs) there to orientate yourself and find the tourist information office, opposite the tall bell tower known as Torre de Mangia.
The medieval city is built on 3 long ridges, each radiating out from the Campo Square like a 3-legged starfish, and just about everything worth seeing is within the city walls.
Next to the monastery is the San Niccolò Church, dating back to the 13th century. Hanging here are important frescoes and paintings from Beccafumi and Manetti.
