The Campo in Siena is probably one of the most beautiful squares in the world, and it has always been very special for the people from this city, because since the early middle ages all sorts of civil, religious, and festive events have take place - preachings, jostling, horse races, etc. Until a few decades ago there was the city market - still a great event for the citizens every Wednsday. And today and tomorrow we will be reliving the times of the market in the campo with local food of the area. There was a nice Christmas atmosphere. Items for every taste: handcrafts products, delicatessen, the traditional and delicious Siena’s Christmas sweets. As usual Siena is very generous: not only the city has offered to us its amazing beauty, but also its colors, delicious smells and music. Have a look at the pictures, and enjoy!
