Siena's Palio Horse Race (Cool!)

Here's info about the Palio di Siena - Siena's Palio Horse Race!

But you've just GOT to see it for yourself! (Seriously.)

• Real Media format (or)
• Windows Media Player format

Want to know more about this strange (again, seriously!) enormously competitive horse race? Check out Wikipedia!

And Siena's a totally gorgeous medieval/renaissance city, almost totally intact from the way it was, like, 500 years ago! (It's even been declared a World Heritage Site by the UN!!)

Here's a virtual visit of the inside of the city's beautiful cathedral! (Be sure to use your arrow keys to look around... even up!)

A lovely little video tour of the city and the countryside... (only watch the first minute and a half!)

Enjoy!!
