Siena (Paperback, illustrated edition)

Enjoy and explore the magic of Tuscany with our new guide to Siena. In the heart of the countryside in one of the most enduringly popular parts of Italy, Siena takes readers - from the casual to the frequent visitor - to the pick of its villas, as well as offering an insight into the Sinenese school of art. Not content with just covering the highlights of a trip to the town - including its famous cathedral and the Palio horserace - this guide takes you further afield for daytrips into the idyllic countryside. Including the famous hill town of San Gimignano, the Etruscan remains of Volterra, the medieval fortified town of Monteriggioni, and Montalcino, the hill town famed for its red wine, this little guide covers a lot of ground and packs a big punch.
