San Gimignano
San Gimignano is a pretty medieval walled city in Tuscany, Italy, famous for its historic centre with beautiful towers and great art. It is small enough to be effectively visited as a day trip from nearby cities like Siena and Florence, but it has a different, more peaceful atmosphere at night that many travelers find it worthwhile to experience.
