Siena...

First settled in 900 BC, by the Etruscans, a Tuscan hillside town is rich in history with Romanesque archictecture and Gothic influences has the most interesting piazza's. It is fan shaped and the Roman aquaducts end there in the piazza. We had a three hour lunch here in Siena. I have never seen so much food, from raviolni to boar meat and peccorino cheeses. The special wines are a delightful part of the meal. The town of Montepulciano is the home of a celebrated wine amongst connoisseurs and is one of the oldest Tuscan reds, Vino Nobile.
