Dear Friends,
Today I want to tell you of some places from my point of view have a special magic and should not miss on a visit Siena that extends over one day. In a previous article had talked about the main sites and it should be on a visit to Siena a day today, however, I want to add information to the beautiful places of the city to escape in a quick visit .
depends on point of access to the city that you choose you could get lost among the most beautiful
postcards of the city. In fact, from this square has a unique panorama of the Cathedral Siena is without doubt one of the most impressive of the city and the world's artistic and architectural heritage.
Second magical place in the city is Porta Romana.
This gateway to the city is probably the most beautiful and best preserved. The door
has this name because it lies south of the city towards the capital (Rome).
This door is especially interesting to visit because it retains the two doors to be opened to access the city. During the Middle Ages for safety, access to the city was protected by a door opening into an enclosed yard where they could be even closer to visitors and a second gateway to the city.
Next to this door is a beautiful building that was once a center for the mentally ill, while today it is an integral part of the University of Siena.
The way to get from downtown to the door I take very pretty streets outside the usual tourist routes.
Third Siena magical place is the Basilica dell Osservanza.
To reach the Basilica is necessary to drive or take the bus. The Basilica is
on the outskirts of the city and is a former Franciscan convent. The Church itself has nothing special to see, but if the faculty is open to discover a place that gives a beautiful sense of peace and serenity. The place is particularly nice for the environment in which it is and the fantastic views from the city Siena.
As always, hoping that this information will be helpful, I send you warm greetings
G.
