   The Baptistery of Pisa, dedicated to Saint John the Baptist, is part of the Square of Miracles in Pisa, Italy, a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1987. Built starting from 1152, it is known for its Romanesque-Gothic transition style. Its dome-covered structure is the largest of its kind in Italy, featuring a relief-decorated portal and an interior with minimal ornamentation, except for an octagonal font and a statue of Saint John the Baptist. Nicola Pisano's pulpit inside is a precursor to Renaissance style. Its unique acoustics produce prolonged echoes.

   Leaning Tower of Pisa

   30min

   The Leaning Tower of Pisa (in Italian: Torre pendente di Pisa), or simply the Tower of Pisa, is a bell tower (campanile or standalone bell tower) of the cathedral in the Italian city of Pisa. It is situated behind the cathedral and is the third oldest structure in the Cathedral Square of Pisa (Campo dei Miracoli), after the cathedral and the baptistery. Although intended to stand vertically, the tower began to lean to the southeast shortly after the start of construction in 1173, due to poorly laid foundation and unstable soil, which allowed the foundation to experience differential settlements. The tower currently leans to the southwest.
