Website for your holiday with Children in the Siena territory

If you’re planning your holiday with children, there is a useful website of the territory of Siena trying to help you in organizing your trip e giving you information about things to do, creative places, nice itineraries, etc…

I found this website a useful source of information and sometime find some good suggestion for our guests with children!

Brochures & Guides by Official Website of Turism APT Siena

Finally it is possible to read the official brochures and guides of the Organization promoting Tourism in the territory of Siena (APT Siena and APT Chianciano Terme Val di Chiana): they do not give so much information…but offer a useful inspiration through the many big splendid photos.

Terracotta products, Tuscany

If you’re curious of knowing better the tuscan handwerks and typical products, you can even shop on the website of the tuscan land:

E-Shop official web site InToscana.it

I have seen a lot of interesting objects, especially terracotta, ceramics, extra vergin olive oils, food and wines. Of course they aren’t cheap products at all but the quality is normally great! so if you can’t come to tuscany and directly buy products in the shops, you can try this magic virtual shop!

If you are looking for a perfect location for a photo service or a movie, the Siena territory is ideal:

so, if you’re planning a holiday in the Siena territory, do not forget your photo camera and your video camera!

I copy from a new website for film makers:

«Those colours, that light…» as the poet Mario Luzi crisply described our land, honing in on that characteristic universal uniqueness that has made it famous throughout the world.

As a result Terre di Siena is their perfect set for films, commercials and photo shoots.

That’s because when all is said and done this region is the only real Utopia, the only fictitious reality.
Everyone’s dream location actually exists. It’s here and it belongs to us.

Palio, Siena, Italy

Recently I have discovered a nice web site about the siennese Palio: its name is IlPalio.org

It is in many languages (this is not so frequent ..)  and it is really detailed: you will understand a little more this magic mad world in which the siennese people are submerged for most of the year. Because the Palio is not Folklore, it is something the siennese people feel inside and talk about most of the year…  I find it fool of course but it’s particular and interesting:-))
