The Palio di Siena is one of Tuscany’s most awaited summer events. Boasting centuries-old origins, Italy's most famous horse race takes place twice a year in piazza del Campo, Siena’s main medieval, shell-shaped square. The Palio has for centuries been a competition among the city’s districts, called contrade. This historic tradition dates to 1633, but every year Siena relives the event with the zeal of its past.
Many thanks to Gian Luca & Raffaella
