The Back Yard of Leaning tower

Chiesa

Adjacent chiesa
It is a very large building and a part of the theme for the complex
Santa Maridell Spina church

Beautiful little church on the river

This church is sacred and still has a lot of local people frequent for services and quite hour.
View from across the river

Magnificent buildings

The view from a distance give an appreciation for what fabulous strucutres Pisa has. If you take a slow walk along the Po, many can be truly appreciated for their elegance

 This is the first page I have seen with the leaning tower of Pisa. How wonerful. It looks stunning. I didn't know they would allow people to climb to the top. Great page!

 Lovely Pisa page with excellent photographs especially on the Leaning Tower of Pisa. Bring back fond memories of our trip to Pisa last year. Thanks for sharing. ~ho & pang

 Excellent photos & narrative has captured the essence of Pisa. We had the same problem with touts at the Taj Mahal- although did not feel threatened by them, just very annoyed.
