Siena: Tuscany's medieval jewel
Siena is one of Tuscany's most charming cities, a place where time seems to have stood still among squares, palaces, and narrow streets. Famous throughout the world for its extraordinary historical and artistic heritage, Siena enchants visitors with its authentic atmosphere, far from the frenetic pace of big cities.
Strolling through the historic center, you will be struck by the elegance of Piazza del Campo, the beating heart of the city and home to the famous Palio. Here you will find monumental buildings such as the Palazzo Pubblico and the Torre del Mangia, which offer one of the most iconic views of Tuscany.
Its streets are lined with historic shops, wine bars, and breathtaking views that tell a long story of art and tradition. Less than an hour and a quarter from Fox's Inn, Siena is the perfect destination for a day of beauty.
