The Tuscan hill town of Siena is known both for its pride and for its independent attitude. And for five centuries, that spirit has shown itself in a crazy horse race — the Palio.

In this clip from my new, one-hour Rick Steves' European Festivals public television special, we get right into the thick of it all.
