Expo 2015 - See Siena Cathedral's Stunning Mosaic Floors

Siena Cathedral, or the Metropolitan Cathedral of Saint Mary of the Assumption, is a 13th century church in Siena, Tuscany. As it houses works by Donatello, Bernini, Michelangelo and Cimabue (among others) and is one of the main sights in the city, chances are that it is already on many itineraries of visitors to the city. However, if you have found a luxury villa in Siena and are making the trip there this summer, there is even more reason to visit the Cathedral.

Each year in Tuscany, a very special vehicle takes magical trips around its beautiful countryside; the Nature Train, or the Terre di Siena Treno Natura. Originally it was established in 1991 under a travel agency. Later, it was handed over to the Val d'Orcia Railway, a voluntary association of retired railway workers and other interested people who ran regular Nature Train services on 15 to 20 holidays during May, June, September and October over the Asciano–Monte Antico route. It has recently reopened after some time of inactivity.

Catherine of Siena was a Dominican tertiary, philosopher and theologian. Born in the 14th century, she began having visions of Christ at the age of five or six. At seven, she had decided to devote her life to God. She resisted marriage as a young woman until she was eventually allowed to join the Dominican Order. She was known for helping the sick and poor and launching reform campaigns among the faithful. Catherine even went so far as to become involved in political matters like swaying the loyalties of cities back towards the papal armies. Her writings spread her word further and gained more followers but she also became known for extreme devotion, eventually dying due to her refusal to eat.

Impossibly pretty little towns and villages that are steeped in charm and history and can appear almost totally untouched by time are not uncommon in Tuscany. Drive around the region and you’re likely to stumble upon any untold number of these incredibly sweet places by pure chance. However, if you want to find a cluster of some very scenic examples in a small area, the comune of Sovicille, nestled in the hills of Siena, is an excellent example. Surrounded by the famous lush greenery, winding roads, and rolling hills of Tuscany and filled with fascinating architectural gems, romantically crumbling castles, handsome palaces, charming churches, and more, these villages are totally picturesque. Book your villa in Siena and then come explore these gorgeous settlements and the lovely surrounding countryside while soaking up the authentic charm and beauty of Tuscany...

Why not stretch your legs in the lively town of Monticiano?

This pretty part of Siena province is situated on the right bank of the Val di Merse and is included in the Metalliferous Hills nature area that is bordered by several regions.

Visit the local ‘Buca dei Falchi’, a huge cave full of stalactites and stalagmites for a few hours or stroll along the many guided walking, cycling or horse riding tours available around this picturesque town.

The ancient hamlet of Castello di Tocchi is only a few minutes’ walk away and would be the perfect setting to enjoy a picnic meal as you gaze around the peaceful environment of colourful flowers and trees. Sit back and relax in the healing thermal springs of Bagni di Petriolo, a frazioni of Monticiano which is very popular with tourists.

There is no doubt about it: Tuscany is impossibly picturesque. And the list of places and sights and gorgeous buildings and incredible views and amazing works of art that could be defined as must-sees is truly endless. However, most of us unfortunately do not have entire lifetimes to explore every little thing of beauty in this stunning part of Italy. Despite this, those who browse our Tuscany villas will be able to fit a lot of wonderful sights into a vacation in Tuscany. So, why not book your trip today and get started? To help you out, we’ve compiled a list of some of the most beautiful of this endless list of extraordinary sights to get you started, help you plan your itinerary, and whet your appetite!

1. Siena’s gilded cathedral

As there is no shortage of lovely sights in Tuscany, there is also no shortage of remarkable churches and cathedrals in this part of the world. Those, however, who find a villa with pool in Siena, should definitely make a point to see this city’s glittering Duomo. With its polychromatic stone, intricate carvings, luxurious marble floors, and array of stunning words of art, it is a thing of wonder.

Pasar unos días en la Toscana ya es una maravilla y si encima te alojas en la preciosa torre de María, aún más. Está todo muy limpio, dispone de camas muy amplias y cómodas.
Además está a 20 minutos de Siena. Nos encantó el entorno y su jardín.

Excellent 5^/5   Villa Review Rating Details

Nunca me había alojado en un castillo del S.XIII. Ha sido una maravilla!

El alojamiento para dos personas es muy amplio con todas las comodidades y súper limpio! La decoración és súper! Se duerme genial! Por cierto, tengo el cabello rizado y en el alojamiento hay un secador con difusor para el cabello rizado.

Además, el Castillo que està en Stigliano, un pueblecito muy hermoso del municipio de Solvicille. Además, està muy bien comunicado con Siena y autopistas para visitar la Toscana.

Además de los alojamientos, tienen espacios abiertos comunes i jardín. Todo es magnífico y precioso. No falta detalle. Por las mañanas hay un espacio para tomar café, que incluye la casa, además de xocolates y galletas varias

Nosotros por ejemplo, hicimos amistad con tres personas de Berlín y por la noche haciamos una copita de vino.

Pero lo más importante del alojamiento es Maria! La alma del castillo! Siempre atenta a tus necesidades. Nuestra semana en su castillo fué como estar en casa. Son una familia magnífica.
Mención a parte a Luca, el marido de Maria ;-), un hombre entegado a su castillo y a las tradiciones de los Palios de Siena,

En fin, creo que no me dejo nada, que estar en este alojamiento ha sido genial y siempre recordaremos este viaje y, sobretodo, sus amfitriones: Maria y Luca
