Siena is one of the most popular and visited places in Tuscany, extremely rich in history and art and with strong local traditions tied to its 17 districts (called “contrade”) and to the famous Palio di Siena, the biggest annual event that takes place twice each summer in the city.
San Gimignano is famous for its fascinating medieval architecture and towers that rise above of all the other buildings offering an impressive view of the city from the surrounding valley.

The Logge del Papa features a Renaissance style with three wide arches. The arches are supported by slender Corinthian columns that form an elegant colonnade. The design shows the severity quite typical of the region where it is located.
Historic Centre of San Gimignano
2h
Nicknamed “the Town of Fine Towers”, or “Tuscany’s Manhattan”, San Gimignano has one of Italy’s most unforgettable skyline with medieval towers jutting out like skyscrapers above the historic town.
During the medieval times, there were 72 towers up to 230 feet that were built by prominent families flaunting their f political power and economic status.

Piazza Della Cisterna

Not to be missed is the town’s lively triangular square, Piazza della Cisterna, named after the cistern, or rather a well, located in the square’s center.
