Siena is a beautiful walled city, considered Florence's sister/rival city way back in the day. It was about an hour from our villa. A gorgeous drive through rolling Tuscan countryside. And it was busy, hard to find parking outside the walls but once we wandered in a very neat experience.
| Siena felt like Italy with it's narrow, steep, winding streets of old buildings, shops & cafes |

| Waiting in an Arch on near the Duomo |
| The Duomo, if you haven't figured it out all Italian cities have a Duomo. Other places you would call it Church, Cathedral, Dom.... |
| Beautiful pottery. Definitely a look with your eyes & not with your hands |
| Ill Campo, Siena's main square |
| It slopes down & functions like an amphitheater |
| Even in October it was very warm, we were having a gelatto break |
| It isn't Italy if you don't see Italian leather shops....everywhere!! |
