| Page Views: 210 Last Visit to Pisa: July, 2005 | More than a tower by Lhenne1 - last update: Oct 13, 2006 |
While in Italy, we took a quick trip to Pisa. Unfortunately, our time there was limited to a few short hours and therefore, we spent most of that time by the Famous Cathedral, Baptistry and Tower.
Seeing the leaning tower, I was star-struck for a moment. It's incredible to think it can stand like that and still be fairly secure (though you will see supports along the bottom when you get up close). |
|  | Aside from the tower, be sure you take some time to see the Cathedral and the Baptistry (also both leaning). The artwork on these buildings is very intricate and beautifully crafted.
Near the three buildings, you'll find plenty of tourist stands and shops. Get there early, by noon the sqaure is packed with tourists. |

SteveOSF Fri Jul 25, 2008 19:41 UTC This is another spot I would like to visit one day. | Pawtuxet Thu Mar 27, 2008 13:40 UTC I thought I was going to topple down those cockeyed stairs as I climbed...what a feeling! Everyone's trip seems to be the same. Do you suppose there are other things in that town? | deecat Tue Mar 18, 2008 01:13 UTC Although Pisa is my least favorite in Italy, I do think that your page is excellent. | Maurizioago Sun Feb 17, 2008 10:43 UTC Nice page. Ciao! |
