Review & FAQ:

Once a powerful Italian maritime republic and a university city that attracted young minds since 12th century, Pisa is now attracting millions of tourists who come to see its famous leaning church tower – one architectural project that went wrong.

Naturally, you will start your exploring by visiting the magnificent Piazza del Miracoli with its bright white leaning tower surrounded by a field of green grass. It is stunningly beautiful, and the Cathedral and the Baptistry are nearby.

Climb the tower, as the view at the top is spectacular, and then walk through ancient streets of Pisa with its magnificent Romanesque houses, imposing Gothic churches, beautiful Renaissance piazzas, opulent palaces, fountains, and museums. Walk along the River Arne, sit in one of the quintessential outdoor Italian cafes, and enjoy the vibrant, lively atmosphere of this incredibly charming university town that even ancient Romans considered old.
