Siena is a city in Tuscany, Italy. It is the capital of the province of Siena. The historic center of Siena has been declared by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site. It is one of the nation's most visited tourist attractions. Siena is famous for its cuisine, art and its medieval cityscape.
The Jewish community dates back to the 13th century. It is very small now but they maintain a synagogue.
Visiting on a hot August day, we were surprised to be caught in a hail storm with hail stones the size of dimes!! Luckily we took shelter in the arches of the city hall for the 40 minutes it poured and rained hail stones at us.
