Travel to Pisa - Italy Travel

 

When people talk about Pisa, they would usually think that the Pisa Tower is the only tourist attraction that they can find in the city. However, because of its rich Roman culture, there are numerous Roman architectures that you can find and feast your eyes on. It is actually not necessary to sign up for a Pisa travel guide just to explore the rest of this tourist destination. You can create an itinerary of your own if you would be travelling to Pisa. Just make sure that you bring a camera along with you so that you will have something memorable to look at once you are already home.

 

First on the list, of course, is the Pisa Tower. Since 2001, people who wish to climb the 296 steps of the tower may now do so. However, you must secure a ticket worth 15 Euro before you can get to the insides of the tower. Near the tower is another tourist spot called the Baptistry. A travel to Pisa can never be complete if you would miss the chance to go to the Baptistry. This is a Romanesque dome where you can also climb up so you can see a spectacular view of the Pisa Tower.

 

 

And because of the Roman culture embraced in Pisa, there are also several worshipping sites that serve as a tourist spot at the same time. The Duomo di Pisa is the finest cathedral in the city that has a Romanesque and Renaissance style. Another church that you must visit, especially if you are Catholic, is the Santa Maria della Spina where you can see a thorn from the crown of Jesus displayed and preserved.

 

If you are into arts, there are several museums that you can choose from and see at various Pisa guides. One of the most famous museums in Pisa is the Museo del Opera del Duomo. In here, you will find different paintins as well as sculptures that was once preserved at the city's cathedral. There are even bronze griffins that came from the country of Syria taken by the Crusaders. Another museum that you must visit is the Museo delle Sinopie. The surviving murals coming from the Campo Santo are displayed in this museum. And coincidentally, when these murals were separated from the walls of Campo Santo because of the bombings in World War II, it revealed sketches of the artists which are now also in the Museo delle Sinopie.
