The Best of NileGuide
- Experience what Siena holds dear. Visit the Duomo first, located off the Piazza del Campo, it is actually divided into three different areas each with its own world renown art. St. Catherine is the patron saint of Siena, she grew up here and you can visit her childhood home. There are many sites dedicated to her, but the most intriguing is the Basilica di San Domenico where you can view St. Catherine's preserved head. Siena's religious sights will connect you with the sacred side of local culture.
