    At the foot of the Basilica Cateriniana di San Domenico you have three "viewpoints" marked on the map. The cathedral towers above the horizon of Siena anyway, so you can always see it.

      The Basilica Cateriniana di San Domenico, also known as St. Dominic's Basilica, is an impressive Gothic church building that stands atop the Camporegio hill in Siena. It was built between the 13th and 15th centuries by the Dominicans. The basilica is shaped like an Egyptian cross and was expanded in the 14th century with a large bell tower. Despite being almost completely destroyed by a major fire in 1532 and an earthquake in 1798, the basilica was repeatedly restored to its former glory. From its southern facade, which is located on a steep slope, the basilica dominates the Valle de Fontebranda and offers some of the best views of the Duomo of Siena. Furthermore, the basilica offers panoramic views of the city from its privileged hillside location.

          It is always worth going early in the morning before the tourist rush
