Siena, a view from above of a beautiful Tuscan Town

Climbing towers is a frequent cardiac stress test and step class for the tourist. I’ve climbed towers in Rome, Prague and Siena to name just a few. The Torre del Mangia (Belltower) offers commanding views of the Piazza del Campo in Siena and surrounding streets. It has 505 steps but the views are certainly worth it. Next time you are in Siena, take the climb, what a perfect way to prepare for a gelato when you return to ground level.
