Pisa, Italy


Worth visiting for The Leaning Tower alone..

Seems to be generally accepted that there is little else to see in Pisa..

However, if you’ve read the Divine Comedy (Dante), there’s also the Palace of the Orologio, where Count Ugolino della Gherardesca was imprisoned and condemned to death.. and that’s worth a look..

Barring that.. you’ll be wondering how many mini-Leaning Tower statuetes the vendors have got through in the last 20 odd years, and almost hoping that the Tower just falls, so there’s something else to see..

Well, sort of.. :)
