Thankfully it's very close to the main train station, so you can drop off your handbags in a locker and hop on a bus for the short drive to the plain square about the Pisa's leaning tower and church. The Leaning Tower in Pisa is really just the bell tower for the close cathedral, which is quite awesome in its own right. Tours of the cathedral and the baptistery (behind the church) are recommended, and inexpensive in comparison to the tower itself. The tower is sometimes open for climbing and sometimes not, counting on its stability, and it's a good idea to book tickets beforehand if you're hoping to climb it.]]> http://www.holidays-to-italy.com/italy-vacations/leaning-tower-of-pisa/feed/ 0
