Siena

Land of heated rivalries and competitions. From year to year the cities and villages revive with passionate tournaments inherited from the Middle Ages. Unbridled races through the old alleys. Squares crowded with crowds. Heroic knights fighting unrestrained rides.

Above all, the Palio di Siena, a denial of consumerist folklore. Authentic folk festival. Breathtaking race that takes place every 2nd July and 16th August on the Campo tuff ring.
