Day trip to Pisa

I can confirm it the leaning tower of Pisa is really leaning to one site. Depending from which angle you look its quite a lot actually. Its so much that I always believed that the people walking up in a spiral along the outside. But in fact that spiral is in real not existent. Its just looking like but these are platforms and the stairway is in the inside.

Actually I liked the basilica just next to the tower much more than the tower. Its kind of similar with the one in Florence. Its also decorated with a marble facade and quite big.

After one of our argentinian friends got tickets to enter it we all had a look to the inside which actually is quite impressive. Especially the ceiling and the walls. And I even found a swiss cross 😀

Pisa is not really big and there is not much else to see as this two sights I think. But its enough to do a day trip. Easy to reach by train from Florence. It just takes about 1h or a bit more depending on the train you take.
