Top places to visit

1. Leaning Tower

As one of the most recognizable buildings in Europe, the Leaning Tower of Pisa attracts visitors from across the globe. It is actually the freestanding, Romanesque campanile (bell tower) of the majestic Duomo in Piazza dei Miracoli. While its architecture and history are fascinating, most people come here just to observe and photograph the curious tilt of this Italian icon.

2. Piazza dei Miracoli

Unlike the paved piazzas with fountains that Italy is known for, Piazza dei Miracoli has expansive manicured lawns and is surrounded by ancient walls. Home to one of Europe’s most iconic towers, an important collection of medieval art and some of the most sacred sites in Italy, this enormous square is Pisa’s most popular attraction. Climb the Leaning Tower, discover Italy’s history and explore the cathedral, cloisters and cemetery.

3. Arno River

The Arno River travels gently through Florence on its 150-mile (240-kilometer) journey from Mount Falterona to the Tyrrhenian Sea. During Roman times this was a significant resource to the city and allowed merchants to bring wealth by trade links with the Mediterranean. Walk the banks of the Arno River today to see iconic bridges and resplendent palaces. Cruise the river waters by boat and rafting tours.

4. Passeggiata di Viareggio

Passeggiata di Viareggio gives visitors a real Italian experience. Be prepared to use hand gestures to converse, because not many locals speak English. This authenticity also gives you the opportunity to take part in some of Italy’s finest traditions. It is common in Italy to take a “passeggiata” (evening stroll) down the promenade. Dress somewhat formally to blend in with the locals and take part in this social tradition.

5. Piazza Napoleone
