The Facciatone of Siena is one of the most spectacular panoramic points of the city of Palio. It is part of the colossal complex of the Siena cathedral. The Facciatone represents Sienese Gothic architecture which makes it a unique marvel.
The interior of the facade was initially supposed to be on the side of the Facciatone that faces Piazza Jacopo della Quercia. The Facciatone provides access to other tourist attractions as well as the Metropolitan Cathedral of Santa Maria Assunta, Piccolomini library, Museo dell'Opera del Duomo and Facciatone, Crypt and Baptistry.
However, the steep and narrow staircase makes the pathway difficult for many people but is worth the climb due to the magnificent views it provides thus encouraging many tourists to visit this place.
