Leaning Tower of Pisa | Everyone passing by gives it a push!

The Leaning Tower of Pisa, located near Florence, is about an hour away by regional train to Pisa Central, with 2-3 trains available every hour, allowing for a very flexible schedule. When visiting Florence, the old town, the Leaning Tower of Pisa, and several hill towns in Tuscany are must-see attractions. The world-famous tower was originally the bell tower of Pisa Cathedral. The tilt was noticed when it reached the third floor, and efforts to correct it began, continuing for hundreds of years, even involving the Italian government. A super funny scene is everyone occupying their own angle around the tower, posing in various ways, pushing, propping, hugging. Never have photos been so tiring to take📷, three people spent an hour🤣, it's also an experience❤️

Pisa!

I am sharing with everyone my favorite travel thus far. I really did not expect it to be so wonderful and full of adventure. seeing the leaning Tower of Pisa makes me wonder where I have been hiding all my life. I have only seen the leaning tower in books so seeing it in person is so surreal. Thank you Daddy God for allowing me to see this wonder. I am ever grateful and ever mindful of everything. #pisa #leaningtowerofpisa #italy #passportready

Leaning tower of Pisa: the bell tower

The Pisa tower is one of the four buildings that make up the cathedral complex in Pisa, Italy, called Campo dei Miracoli or Piazza dei Miracoli, which means Field of Miracles. 🌟 It was a miracle of medieval engineering, probably the tallest bell towers in Europe. With 207 columns ranged around eight stories, Tower of Pisa looks like a massive wedding cake knocked precariously askew by a clumsy giant guest. The construction of Tower of Pisa began in August 1173 and continued for about 200 years due to the onset of a series of wars. Till today, the name of the architect is a mystery. The Tower of Pisa is constructed of white marble. It has eight stories, including the chamber for the bells. There is a 297 step spiral staircase inside the tower leading to the top. The top of the leaning tower of Pisa is about 17 feet off the vertical. The tower is also slightly curved from the attempts by various architects to keep it from leaning more or falling over. IT IS A MUST TO VISIT IN ITALY before it (hopefully not) falls down 🔝🔝🔝🔝🔝🔝 #pisa #leaningtowerofpisa #belltower #italy #mustvisit

When in… Pisa

Most Memorable Moment: While walking through Campo Santo and seeing the Leaning Tower in person was fascinating, we were so glad to have caught the breathtaking sunset on the coast during our quick trip to Pisa. It was the perfect site to capture as we made our way further into Tuscany. #Italy #Pisa #Sunset #LeaningTowerOfPisa #FallenAngel #Cathedral #Baptistery #CampoSanto

Pisa tower

The city view from the Pisa tower is an amazing. But for climbing it, 20 euro is a little expensive for experience.

A prickly fun visit to Pisa Botanic 🍁🎍🇮🇹

Initially, upon deciding to stay in Pisa overnight, we wondered whether this small town would have anything interesting to offer. Especially after the hustle and bustle of Rome and Florence. However, after visiting Pisa Botanic, the town's Botanical Garden and museum, we were pleasantly surprised. Despite the downpour and stormy weather, the museum offered a peaceful escape to city life including an amazing bamboo forest, beautiful autumnal scenery, biological history and artefacts inside, as well as an amazing collection of various cacti plants in the conservatory. I would recommend Pisa as a quiet get-away, a mindful break in between visiting Italy's bigger and busier cities. #tripblazers #2023travelwish #mytripvlog

I love the leaning tower 😍🇮🇹

#2023travelwish Leaning tower in Pisa. One of the strongest and biggest experiences of the whole holiday in Italy 🇮🇹 Pisa is not just a leaning tower, a cathedral and a chapel. For me, one of the places that will give you a "wow effect" for the second time. I know this because the tower tour made us decide to visit the city for the second time, just two days later and the feeling was still the same: "Wow, how could something so beautiful and tall be created? " Can’t wait to come back here in again in 2023 hopefully and create more memories 😍❤️🇮🇹 #mytripvlog #tripblazers #bucketlistreboot #celebratewithtrip #passionpassport #passionpassport #awesomepic

Pisa-The leaning Tower 🏛

The Leaning Tower of Pisa,Italy or simply, the Tower of Pisa, is the campanile, or freestanding bell tower, of Pisa Cathedral. It is known for its nearly four-degree lean, the result of an unstable foundation The Tower of Pisa measures 55.86 meters of height with an estimated weight of 14,700 tons and an inclination of about 4 ° extending 3.9 m of the vertical. The Leaning Tower of Pisa is one of the most famous constructions in the world. Its fame not only comes from the original trigger for its construction – to show the importance of this city after successfully attacking the city of Sicily, but also from its tilt, which has lasted for more than nine centuries. It became apparent that the Leaning Tower of Pisa was leaning in the late 1170s, after completion of the first three of the tower's planned eight stories. The leaning was caused by the uneven settling of the building's foundations in the soft ground. 🏛🏛🏛🏛🏛🏛🏛🏛🏛🏛🏛🏛🏛🏛🏛🏛🏛🏛🏛🏛 #spooktaculartrip#fallingforfall#mytripvlog#mountainview#urbanexplorer#awesomepic#tripblazers

Take memories, leave footprints

#celebratewithtrip The leaning tower of Pisa has been on my bucket list for a very long time. Countless times I have read that The Leaning Tower of Pisa is a bore and that is overrated... I have to completely disagree and say the whole area around the tower is beautiful and you will never forget it. I would say to give yourself a few hours- no more than half a day to enjoy the beautiful scenery and soak it all in. The grounds were beautiful, so many happy people,the display of architecture was phenomenal, and of course many opportunities for wonderful pictures. There are decent restaurants nearby and of course they have great views. We just spent a few hours here hence that is why we didn't buy the tickets to climb the tower. It is very brilliant white and extremely ornate. Although there isn't lots of other things to see, I would HIGHLY recommend seeing the tower. It is very impressive, and shouldn't be missed. As others have said, a couple of hours is probably all you need in Pisa, but it is worth the trip!
 Here are some tips i got : 1. I would suggest to purchase tickets in advance, as they can sell out quickly and there are reserved times in which you can visit the tower. 2. There are public restroom, just bring some change to pay. 3. Do not buy souvenirs inside the wall as they are more expensive. Buy outside, where the taxis drop you off. #celebratewithtrip #pisa #italy #travel Inspiration #travel #mytripvlog #summervacation #passionpassport #

One of the wonders of the world. A visit to Italy is incomplete without a detour in Pisa to visit the miraculous tower and a walk through the lanes of Pisa. A picturesque location, the plaza is full of tourists. We visited around October and the weather could not have been any more pleasant. 10/10 would recommend#境外遊 #awesomepic #givethanks

Week trip in Pisa

Pisa has lots of great food located in Toscane and also not too touristic so you can enjoy the local atmosphere

Leaning Tower of Pisa, 🇮🇹

The Leaning Tower of Pisa is an absolute miracle of medieval engineering. It’s distinctive tilt has attracted tourists from all around the world, which included my self. I have always wondered why and how this monument looked like this. According to history, the Tower was a part of the grand project to flaunt both the military victories and grandeur of Pisa. The reason it is tilted was that the presence of soft alluvial soil on one side of the buildings foundations was causing the tower to lean due to its weak, unstable ground. Don’t you worry, the place is safe. I even had great time playing around the tower as if I was holding it from leaning even more. It’s worth every minute of your time. 🥰❤️
