Siena, Italy. A small town in the heart in Tuscany, a region famous for its wine and food. Iconic landscapes, cypress tress and so on and so forth. It is a pleasure to drive through all these windy roads, chased by impatient Fiats that are trying to get passed. Siena itself is rather small and quite, except for loads of tourists who are being dropped off every morning.
I suggest visiting off season to fully enjoy the oldtown area. Twice a year, this square is being turned into a horse-race court where the famous "palio" takes place. A legendary race of the houses of Siena, a race that can be rather brutal and corrupt. (Nikon D5300 8mm from the tower)

What a staggering view.

Thank you! I Always wonder what one could do if drones were allowed in urban area. I'd have thousands of ideas^^ Although I do understand the risk and cons of it. Thanks so much for the upvote.

Great shot. Do you know how high this tower is?

87m or so. Thanks for the comment

What an incredible shot! :D

We @travelingstories have also been to Siena (which is also the topic of today's post, but we didn't have the time to climb to the top...

Always cool to see the structures from above!

Indeed!
