Siena apartments - step out into a classic medieval city!
Siena, located in the province of Tuscany, is only about forty-five minutes
away by car from Florence. It's surrounded by enough picturesque Italian
hill towns to fill up your vacation days and leave you with many sites left to
explore on your next visit.
A
Siena apartment will place you directly in the action of this
medieval city, footsteps away from magnificent churches like the Gothic Duomo
cathedral that makes this town famous, awe-inspiring palaces like the enormous
Palazzo Pubblico which is situated on the Piazza del Campo, and of course, a
plentitude of authentic Italian restaurants.
The people of Siena are fiercely proud of their city and its prominent
place in history, and this devotion is celebrated during the traditional
medieval horse race,
Il Palio, which has occurred in the Piazza del
Campo for centuries. Every year on July 2 and August 16, horses representing
each
contrada, or neighborhood of Siena, race along the course,
fashioned in the colors and ancient symbols from that region. This is great fun
to watch, and with your
Siena apartment, you have the choice to
venture into the excited spectator crowd or to enjoy cheering on one of the
horses from a neighborhood cafe.
Are you a music lover? Siena is home to the Siena Jazz School, which puts on
concerts all year long and shares its talent with the public in festivals
occurring during the International Siena Jazz Masterclasses, where you can
stumble upon a jam session as it lights up the airwaves of a local piazza.
History buffs will revel at the stark contrast of the black and white decor on
the outside of the Duomo, and inside, the beautiful colors of frescos by
Ghirlandaio and Donatello will take your break away. This city loves to enjoy
itself, and you will too if you chose to rent a Siena apartment!
