Who will be the mysterious woman looking out of that window? We don’t know, hopefully she won’t be too offended if we photograph her!

The colorful little houses in Market Square

Siena’s architecture is dominated by the colors of the bricks that make this city very striking. However, if you are looking for a vibrant and colorful shot, you must go to Market Square!

The peacock in the Pecci Garden

You didn’t expect this!

A peacock scampering leisurely within the walls of Siena is definitely something else!

The Drop in the Garden of Ptolemies

Did you know that in Siena it is easy to enjoy a nice walk in the green while staying within the walls?

Hey-what’s that over there? It looks like a giant pear, but it’s something different.

This is the environmental art sculpture Drop created by Tony Cragg and purchased by the City of Siena in 1998.

It sounds like the beginning of a joke but it’s really about your next shot!
