This was a day trip taken as part of my art history class at UGA Cortona during the fall of 2000. San Gimignano is very picturesque, and therefore very popular with the tourists. My art history class went there to see the frescoes painted in the Collegiata. Those paintings are, in my opinion, particularly gruesome, in complete contrast to the beautiful village in which they were painted! After visiting the chapel, we all went for some gelato, where I tried the wine flavored variety - pretty accurate!
