Siena

At the recommendation of my airbnb host, I took a day trip to Siena via train from Florence. Siena is a lesser known Italian city, but strolling around, I found architecture, history, and art from the Roman Empire, the Middle Ages, and the Renaissance period. One day was enough to cover major sites like the Piazza del Campo, Palazzo Salimbeni, and Siena Cathedral, but I think two days would have been more ideal to explore more of the museums, history, and art in this lovely city. #solotravel #italy #siena

Italy | Florence's archenemy | Siena

Florence's neighbor Siena, developed at the same time as Florence, and the two city-states were equally matched. However, Siena has always supported the Holy Roman Empire, while Florence firmly supports the Pope in Rome. Over the centuries from the 13th to the 16th century, the people of the two city-states fought several brutal wars for territory and faith. When Siena built the most beautiful church in Europe at that time (picture). From the 5th to the 7th century, Florence followed suit and created the larger and more magnificent Santa Maria Novella, which looks like twin sisters; Florence has the Giotto Bell Tower, while Siena has the taller Mangia Tower (Figure 8); Siena has the gorgeous Campo Square (Figure 3), which is actually a very large square that cannot be captured without a wide-angle lens, while Florence continues to expand its municipal square. Even today, when these two cities meet in a football match, there is always a lot of tension. In 1348, the Black Death that spread throughout Europe took away two-thirds of the population in Siena. In addition, due to the tusha of the residents by the Roman Emperor, Siena was finally ruled by the Medici family of Florence and incorporated into the Grand Duchy of Tuscany in the second half of the 16th century. From Florence, it takes just over an hour by bus to reach the old town of Siena, where the attractions are right at the bus stop, very convenient.

The Shell Square, also known as the Piazza del Campo, has been the center of Siena since the 14th century and is the soul of Siena. Its unique shell shape is a masterpiece in the history of architecture. Overlooking the heights, the square is a huge shell-shaped fan. It consists of nine parts, representing the nine members of the Siena government square, as well as many coffee shops, souvenir shops, restaurants and aristocratic apartments. The 11 roads around the square extend to all corners of the city Siena City Hall Palazzo Pubblico built at the end of the 13th century, now the city museum, the front of the recession against the square's convex line, is Siena The most brilliant representative of Gothic architecture. The city hall houses exquisite murals, and the front hall has a symbol of the city - the bronze statue of the female wolf Mangia Tower 8 ohm boarding can see the city of Siena, 500 multi-level stairs, 102 meters high

The Shell Square is the main square of Siena in central Tuscany, Italy, and one of the largest medieval squares in Europe. There are many souvenir shops next to the Shell Square. For example, I just walked into this house, it just made me unable to move my legs, a lot of good-looking ceramic decorations, the owner of the store is also very good, seeing me holding the camera and let me take a few more, Finally I picked a small wallet and took it home. The price is not too expensive, about 10 euros.
