Siena is truly a beautiful, historical and enriching place to visit. Park outside the historic centre and walk through the town. Try to go early morning as I did to avoid as many of the tourist busses as you can and just enjoy the beauty before the chaos starts. Having anything to eat or drink in the centre is expensive, but if you are into people watching and absorbing history - it's actually worth it.

La Porta Romana es la más imponente de las puertas de las murallas de Siena del siglo XIV. Erigida en agosto de 1328 por Agnolo di Ventura y Agostino di Giovanni, sustituyó a la antigua Porta di San Martino, construida en el emplazamiento del destruido convento de Santa Bárbara. -------- Porta Romana è la più imponente delle porte delle mura trecentesche di Siena.

Great entrance to the city of Siena. Easily walkable to piazza del Campo. There is some car parking but not much. Don't plan on it. If it's available, it's perfect for entry to the city.

Très belle ville médiévale fortifiée bâtie sur 3 collines, ce qui explique que certaines rues ont des degrés d’élévation différents. Huit portes permettent d’accéder à la ville dont la Porte Romana qui l’une des plus majestueuses située dans la Contrada di Valdimontone. La Piazza del Campo est le cœur de la ville et la rue partant de la Porta Romana vous mène à proximité de cette place et elle la contourne pour une bonne partie. Cette ville vit pour ses deux Palio annuels qui ont lieu l’été.

We parked our car here, under these magnificent arches, in order to walk into the Old City, where cars aren't allowed without permits. They are beautiful!

It is as difficult to tell what was restored versus original. There are weeds growing along the walkway. This site is farther away from other sites.
