Enchanting Pisa - Pisa

<b>We visited Pisa on the way from Venice to Florence and we had very little time - our program in Italy was very saturated. It is a small university town on the <font color=blue>Gulf of Genoa (the Ligurian Sea)</font>. Pisa is mostly populated by students, the university is very old - <font color=blue>Galileo Galilei</font> taught in it. At those times Pisa was a powerful sea state, conquered a lot of countries what influenced its architecture a great deal. It's a real pleasure to walk around the main square of Pisa - the <font color=blue>Square of Miracles (Piazza de Miracoli)</font> on a bright sunny day and to enjoy the architectural masterpieces of the architect <font color=blue>Bonano Pisano</font></b>.
