| Page Views: 480 Last Visit to San Gimignano: January, 2007 | City of Towers by BorneoGrrl - last update: Feb 26, 2007 |
Just before you approach the city, you can already the magnificent towers from a distance. The sight is breathtaking, as if from some medieval scene from long ago
Sadly, I was here for only a few hours because I was on my way back to Florence from Siena. Nevertheless, the short time in San Gimignano has left me with an unforgettable experience. It is truly a medieval city with no modern buildings in sight. |
