Follow a path with glimpses of the Duomo and Torre del Mangia in the distance. Pause for a first look at Siena’s skyline before continuing to Piazza del Campo. This UNESCO-listed, seashell-shaped square is considered one of Italy’s most beautiful piazzas, a legacy of enlightened 14th-century governance.
Siena’s traditions run deep, especially the Palio horse race, which divides the city into neighborhoods called “Contrada.” As you walk through one of the most typical Contrada, imagine the fierce rivalries during the twice-yearly race.
