We reach the Medieval city of Siena driving South from Florence, through the beautiful hills of Chianti. Our tour will make us discover the city by walking through its little and narrow streets. We will arrive to the suggestive Piazza del Campo famous for the Palio and for being one of the most splendid examples of Gothic civil architecture in the world. Here stands the magnificent Palazzo Pubblico with its tower Torre del Mangia.  We will continue on the direction of the Duomo, one of the most fascinating Italian churches in Gothic style. We will visit its interior and the relative Piccolomini Bookshop  (“Libreria Piccolomini”) with its vast naves and magnificent proportions, emphasized by the chiaroscuro effect of the decorations and of the floors. The visit will finish at the  Museo dell’ Opera del Duomo  which houses a number of paintings such as the ”Maestà“, a masterpiece by Duccio di Buoninsegna and sculptures by Giovanni Pisano and Donatello.
