Travel with Me // 7 Things to Do in Siena, Italy, Siena, Italy

After exploring the culture and food amidst the hustle and bustle of Florence, we were ready to get a taste of more Tuscan countryside. We escaped to the slower-paced Italian town of Siena. While smaller and less frequented than Florence, Siena isn’t lacking in things to do. In fact, the historic center of Siena is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and has many cultural spots worth visiting. At the same time, a natural calm fills the streets of this stunning Tuscan hill town that forces you to relax and enjoy.
