Visiting Florence, Siena and Pisa

I finally managed to upload the rest of my adventures in Italy. Pictures of Florance, Siena and Pisa.

Here are the links to them:

It was like 5 minutes from the main train station and just a few minutes away from the center of the city. The great thing is that from Florence you can take the local trains to most interesting places in Tuscany.

Siena is one of those cities in Tuscany where you see the medieval as it once was (or almost). I entered the city through a gateway in the city wall, walked the narrow up hill streets and was amazed by the splendid Piazza del Campo. Also, I advise to climb up the unfished nave of the Duomo. It costs money, but it’s like spectacular! The museum is also great as it contains the original statues of the cathedral.

Next day I went to Pisa. Friends told me that there is not much to see there except the tower. Well, yes, it may not be as spectacular as Siena or Florence, but it’s worth half a day too. The tower is indeed spectacular. It started leaning already after a few stories when it was being build. To me it shows how stubborn people are even when nature bends stuff.

Anyway, I had a great time in Tuscany which apparently is not really like the rest of Italy. When I’ll go back to Italy (which is not going to happen any time soon) I’ll go back to Florence or any other city in that region.
