Pictures of Siena, a Hill Town in Tuscany

Siena is a classic medieval hill town in Tuscany famous for its large fan-shaped piazza, Piazza del Campo, also known as Il Campo. The piazza is the heart of Siena and home of Siena's famous summer horse-race for the Palio, run in July and August. Siena's tall bell tower, Torre del Mangia, and its town hall or Palazzo Publico are on one side of the piazza. Around the piazza are cafes and restaurants where crowds gather, especially in the evening.

Siena is one of Tuscany's prettiest and most popular medieval hill towns. Siena's duomo is one of the best Gothic cathedrals in Italy. Underneath the duomo, you can visit the interesting crypt. Siena has beautiful sites and interesting museums to visit and several places where you can see a fantastic view of Siena and the surrounding countryside.
