Exploring the Leaning Tower of Pisa
Though the Leaning Tower of Pisa is the city’s most iconic landmark, the structure’s history and architectural significance often captivate visitors.
Constructed over a period of 177 years, the 56-meter-tall, white marble bell tower is renowned for its pronounced tilt, which resulted from the gradual sinking of its foundation on soft ground.
Visitors can climb the 293 steps to the top of the tower, offering breathtaking views of the Duomo and Baptistery in the Piazza dei Miracoli.
The tower’s architectural challenges and eventual stabilization make it a testament to human engineering and persistence.
As one of the world’s most recognizable structures, the Leaning Tower of Pisa continues to captivate and inspire awe in all who witness its majestic presence.
Discovering the Art of Florence
Florence, the capital of Tuscany, captivates visitors with its unparalleled concentration of Renaissance art and architecture. Dominating the city’s skyline is the magnificent Duomo, whose iconic dome was engineered by the renowned Brunelleschi.
