Tuscany – European Adventure

Here are some of my favourite travel photographs from magical Tuscany in Italy.

We spent a week in the Chianti region between Siena and Florence. We hired a car and drove around the countryside exploring. I particularly loved Siena and the gorgeous medieval walled villiage of Monteriggioni. The countryside was stunning, flowers were blooming and we had some gorgeous sunsets and cloud cover.

The images may take a while to load as I’ve included a heap, so please be patient! I actually have so many to share that I’ll be making a second post for Tuscany to do it justice!

I think all the flowers we saw in Europe looked stunning!

Beautiful pink roses
I was really excited to visit Siena and it was stunning. The buildings and streets were beautiful with artwork scattered throughout the small city.

Piazza del Campo Siena
I loved the Fonte Gaia, a beautiful fountain in the Piazza del Campo in the center of Siena.

The symbol of Siena – a she-wolf suckling Romulus and Remus, here is one of the many wolf sculptures in Siena.
