    Ancient walls made me feel like we were in a period movie

    Visiting Pisa's original city walls was like stepping back in time. The sense of history and preservation here is remarkable. Walking along these ancient walls, you can feel the weight of centuries of stories embedded within the stones.

    This Tour Unveils Italy's Storied Heritage

    Delving into Pisa's historic core, I immersed myself in a tapestry of Italy's rich past and enduring legacy. The journey commenced at the majestic Cathedral, a splendid example of Romanesque architecture dating back to the 11th century. Its intricately adorned façade and imposing interior captivated me, offering insight into centuries of religious devotion and architectural mastery. However, the pinnacle of Pisa's allure undoubtedly lies in its iconic Leaning Tower. As I stood beneath its tilted silhouette, I marvelled at the feat of engineering and the centuries-long struggle to defy gravity. Its lean, a consequence of unstable soil, has become a symbol of human perseverance and ingenuity
