Why stop here
Orti de’ Tolomei
This garden offers a small change of atmosphere on the southern side of the historic centre. It works well when you want air and a view without making a tower climb the main event.

How this guide is prepared
Terra Routes makes editorial selections and planning suggestions. Visit order, duration and effort are estimates, not a personal inspection of every place. Check current opening hours, prices, services and access conditions with the venue or operator before your visit.
Before you plan
Make room for this
Plan it with the Fisiocritici museum or the Via di Città side of Siena. Check local access and the weather before relying on it as your only rest stop.
