As we walk through the historic center of Siena, we'll admire significant palaces such as Palazzo Tolomei and Palazzo Salimbeni, which reflects Siena's history.

We will also see the Basilica of San Domenico, known for housing a revered relic: a mummified head.

Gradually, we'll approach Piazza del Duomo for a guided tour of the baptistery and the Siena Cathedral. Inside, we will see masterpieces, including La Maestà by Buoninsegna and a sculpture of St. Paul by Michelangelo Buonarroti.
