The construction of this famous medieval structure began in 1173 and took more than 200 years. It's one of four buildings in the ceremonial complex of Piazza dei Miracoli or Square of Miracles. You can climb to the top of the bell tower, then visit historic Pisa Cathedral and the Baptistery. Afterward, join hundreds of tourists posing at all angles to capture a photo holding up the Leaning Tower of Pisa. #themeparks#nationalpark

The 197-foot bell tower rose at Campo dei Miracoli between the 12th and 14th centuries to accompany a Romanesque cathedral and baptistery. Although it began tilting immediately, Pisa’s eight-story marble structure, ringed with arches and 207 support columns, was considered an engineering feat. Following centuries of effort to right it, the tower reopened in 2001 after three years of placing weights on the tower and removing soil from below the foundation succeeded in reducing the tilt. #themeparks#nationalpark

Pisa is a city and comune in Tuscany, central Italy, straddling the Arno just before it empties into the Ligurian Sea. It is the capital city of the Province of Pisa. Although Pisa is known worldwide for its leaning tower (the bell tower of the city's cathedral), the city of over 91,104 residents (around 200,000 with the metropolitan area) contains more than 20 other historic churches, several medieval palaces, and various bridges across the Arno. Much of the city's architecture was financed from its history as one of the Italian maritime republics. The city is also home to the University of Pisa, which has a history going back to the 12th century and also has the Scuola Normale Superiore di Pisa, founded by Napoleon in 1810, and its offshoot, the Sant'Anna School of Advanced Studies, as the best-sanctioned Superior Graduate Schools in Italy. #holidayvacation#wintergetaway#staycation#tripinspired#happynewyear

#awesomepic 🙆‍♀️ The second day in Florence, I decided to take a train to go to the small town of Pisa to see the civilized Leaning Tower of Pisa. Following the flow of people into the ancient city walls, the eyes suddenly opened up, and the square of Pisa Cathedral gathered the most splendid Romanesque buildings in Italy. On the day I went there, the sky was clear, the blue sky, and the fresh field scenery were particularly fascinating. All the tourists from all over the world in the square were taking pictures with the same pose. The scene was very interesting. #awesomepic

#pisa #italy pisa is a a place in #tuscany famous for the leaning tower. one of the great masterpieces. the tower is leaned because of the soft base not properly managed and after construction it leaned approximately 5.5 degrees. then it was supported with some remedial measures and the angle reduced to approximately 3.9 degrees. A worth visiting place 🥰 #wintergetaway
