Italy » Tuscany » Siena, (54.000 inhabitants) is situated in the very
heart of Tuscany at 70 km. from Florence and 231 km. from Rome along the
Cassia Way. She a lies at 322 metres above sea level on top of three hills
overlooking the Arbia and the Elsa valleys. The uneven level of the ground
affords suggestive views and most interesting perspectives. It is rich in
works of art and monuments. Previously an Etruscan city and Roman
settlement, it has known economic and artistic prosperity during the
Middle-Ages. Siena has been able to conserve its ancient medieval
characteristics integrally: buildings, small squares, narrow streets,
back-streets and best of all, the warm, rich colour of red bricks. The
town is divided into seventeen districts called "Contrade". Though old, Siena enjoys all modem comforts; she has good hotels and
restaurants and many little inns called "trattorie" where prices are
reasonable. Public offices are efficient,
people are friendly and visitors welcome.

of San Giovanni, Pinacoteca Nazionale art gallery, Piazza del Campo and
