Siena Warnings and Dangers: 11 reviews and 12 photos
If you are the slightest bit claustrophobic, have a fear of crowds, or have a small bladder, DO NOT EVEN THINK OF OF VIEWING the Palio from the center of the Piazza. Once you are in there, there is no leaving until the end of the race. There are no facilities and it gets quite packed and can be rather frightening. Although the actual race takes just over a minute once it begins, it does not necessarily begin on time. Once in there, you could be stuck for two or three hours. It is better to get reserved seat tickets, if you want to see the race. For tickets see website below.
