Description

Be sure to read the Special Notes further down this page for important requirements and restriction.

What you will visit:

Piazza dei Miracoli (Square of Miracles)
A UNESCO World Heritage Site, Piazza dei Miracoli (Square of Miracles) is home of the famed Leaning Tower, which is actually the cathedral's bell tower, as well the duomo, the baptistery, the monumental cemetery and museums. Many people ask why it leans and what its original purpose was. The tower was meant to be the bell tower for the cathedral, but due to its faulty design and loose soil beneath it, it never fulfilled its purpose. The Leaning Tower of Pisa really is leaning! On the side where the tower is higher, it stands at 187.27 feet, and on the low side it stands at 186 feet.

What you will see along the way:
From your trolley, as you approach, you'll see the square dominated by sculptures and monuments, most notably the famous Leaning Tower. You'll past the noted holy buildings in the Piazza including the Duomo and Baptistery, and of course, the Campanile (the Leaning Tower). The beautifully decorated cemetery, or Campo Santo, contains 53 cartloads of earth that the Crusaders brought from Jerusalem.

Snack:
Refreshments are offered during your tour and there are many local cafés just steps from the Square of Miracles where you can get a snack (at your own expense).
