Leaning Tower of Pisa. Italy

Pisa is a city in Italy's Tuscany region best known for its iconic Leaning Tower. Already tilting when it was completed in 1372, the 56m white-marble cylinder is the bell tower of the Romanesque, striped-marble cathedral that rises next to it in the Piazza dei Miracoli. Also in the piazza is the Baptistry, whose renowned acoustics are demonstrated by amateur singers daily, and the Caposanto Monumentale cemetery.

Pisa was the birthplace of the scientist Galileo Galilei. The University of Pisa, founded in 1343, had more than 25,000 students in the late 20th century. The city remains the seat of an archbishopric. Pisa is now an important railway junction and has an international airport.

The Leaning Tower of Pisa is a medieval structure in Pisa, Italy, that is famous for the settling of its foundations, which by the late 20th century had caused it to lean about 15 feet (4.5 metres) from the perpendicular. #pisa #italy
