Pisa

by Bigs - last update: Nov 13, 2002

Welcome to a wonderful place!

Piazza dei Miracoli
The piazza dei Miracoli is one of the biggest tourist magnets of the world and I think this place is really beautiful and worth a visit.

But don“t forget to have a look at other parts of Pisa. You should at least walk to the river Arno once and have a look at the chapel of Santa Maria della Spina.
Il Torre Pendente

The leaning tower

The leaning tower is really sloping, more than you expect I would say. The white marble everywhere makes it a very special place...

Camposanto Monumentale

I also loved the cemetary next to the Duomo. żou can really feel history here I think. All those sarkophags and gravestones are interesting to watch. The wall paintings are even better and are restored right now.....some pieces are hanging in an extra room inside the graveyard!

In A Nutshell:"A Piazza dei Miracoli - a place of wonders!"
