What in tarnation are these tourists looking at???

Amateur photographers in Siena
If you have been to Siena, you will know right away that these tourists are looking at one of the most stunning sights in Italy.

I loved Siena. It was my favorite Tuscan city. Unfotunately, my time was limited, and was only able to spend a few hours there doing typical tourist things.
Siena, Italy
I was in Siena for a mere 6 hours, and a good part of that time was spent circling the city looking for a parking space. But we finally landed a spot and made it! Come with me and I'll show you Siena as seen by American tourists (aka travelers) in Siena. This amazing Tuscan city was molto bello and I had an enjoyable day in Siena!

 Superb photos of this magnificent city that I remain to visit ! I agree with you that standing in line is not the best tourist's activity !

 Thanks for some nice pictures. In Latin and Italian, "Opera" is the plural of "Opus." Opus means work, i.e. a work, e.g. a work of art. Opera means works.
