    The buildings complex includes the Duomo, the city’s Cathedral, the Baptistery, the Camposanto Monumentale cemetery, the Campanile, a hospital and palaces, all surrounded by a Medieval wall. A

    nice walking route will be along the medieval walls from Piazza dei Miracoli to the Piazza delle Gondole, and from there to Lungarno Mediceo, a 30 minutes’ walk on the bank of the Arno river, and then to the lively piazza delle Vettovaglie for a coffee in one of the open-air cafe’s.

    Visit Pisa for half a day starting at Piazza Miracoli and the leaning tower (Campanile), and spending few hours enjoying the streets on the banks of the Arno river, on Lungarno Mediceo or Lungarno Galileo Gallilei and the nearby lively piazzas.
    Admire the beautiful landscape of the colored buildings and architecture.
