Great shot. I visited Pisa in June 2008 and due to a host of circumstances did not visit the inside of the Duomo. Unfortunate but one that is corrected on the next trip. Thanks.

I am off to Pisa in July and have enjoyed reading your Pisa pages. The whole tower adventure is beginning to sound a bit stressful, shall have to plan my time well to get the best of this town :-)

I agree- a town much more to offer than the tower. A few visits to Pisa and have yet found the urge to drop 15Euro to climb it. Great tip Santa Maria della Spina- I will seek out this unique church on my next visit- ciao

One of my pet peeves is when people say that Pisa just isn't worth it. You have built a great page here.
