Pisa is world famous for the leaning tower , one of the wonders of the world ,that people from all over the world come to see. The Cathedral and it's bell tower were built almost 1000 years ago ,of white marble ,which has sunk over time ,as the city's foundations are built on sandy soil .The sheer weight of the tower ,and cathedral ,caused it to sink over time.
Pisa is not just about the tower, the city has maintained it's medieval appearance and is full of historical monuments and buildings. It roughly takes 1 hour ,by car ,to Pisa and there is a large car park just minutes away from the tower.
