Leaning Tower of Pisa

The Leaning Tower of Pisa, one of Italy's most famous historical attractions, is just one of several significant structures inside the Piazza dei Miracoli. The Camposanto, Battistero (Baptistery), and Duomo are the others. We enjoy how it appeals to both young and old people. And it must win the title for the most famous (and predictable!) tourist photograph, with tourists propping up the tower with their hands or using it as the gelato on their ice cream cone! Just watching folks struggle to get that cheesy photo is entertaining! When you've got enough of people watching, head inside and up the 294 steps to the top to take in the sights.

If you wish to visit Assisi, this Italy house rental in nearby Spello is a fantastic option, with beautiful country lanes covered with olive trees and vineyards.
