    PISA Walking Tour – Piazza del Duomo || Pisa Italy [4k]



    PISA Piazza del Duomo walking tour, Pisa, Italy.

    PISA is a city and comune in Tuscany, central Italy, straddling the Arno just before it empties into the Ligurian Sea. It is the capital city of the Province of Pisa. Although Pisa is known worldwide for its leaning tower, the city contains more than twenty other historic churches, several medieval palaces, and bridges across the Arno. Much of the city’s architecture was financed from its history as one of the Italian maritime republics.

    The city is also home to the University of Pisa, which has a history going back to the 12th century, the Scuola Normale Superiore di Pisa, founded by Napoleon in 1810, and its offshoot, the Sant’Anna School of Advanced Studies.

    While the bell tower of the cathedral, known as “the leaning Tower of Pisa”, is the most famous image of the city, it is one of many works of art and architecture in the city’s Piazza del Duomo, also known, since the 20th century, as Piazza dei Miracoli (Square of Miracles), to the north of the old town center. The Piazza del Duomo also houses the Duomo (the Cathedral), the Baptistry and the Campo Santo (the monumental cemetery). The medieval complex includes the above-mentioned four sacred buildings, the hospital and few palaces. All the complex is kept by the Opera (fabrica ecclesiae) della Primaziale Pisana, an old non profit foundation that has operated since the building of the Cathedral in 1063 to maintain the sacred buildings. The area is framed by medieval walls kept by the municipal administration.

      Love that opening!! Coming from a television editor, I know how much time and effort it takes to edit something like that. Excellent job and great video. I have always wanted to see the leaning tower of Pisa and hope to travel there one day. The grounds and historic surrounding buildings are beautiful. I've never seen a video tour of it like this before. So cool and it's great to see how many tourists are there etc. Like #42 from me and thank you for sharing D&B Travels ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ˜Ž

      This is a beautiful area! We came here on a tour at the end of the day and everyone was exhausted and not very impressed! But it really is beautiful!

      I have seen and read a lot about the leaning tower – but didn't know much else about Pisa. It looks beautiful. The architecture at the beautiful churches and other historic buildings is lovely. The artistry of these buildings (including the leaning tower) is amazing. Thanks so much for sharing this walking tour of Pisa with us!
