It\u2019s also one of the <strong>leading tourist attractions<\/strong> in all of Italy. People come from far and wide to see this famous tower.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: justify; line-height: 15.693333625793457px; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial; caret-color: #000000; color: #000000; font-style: normal;\"><span lang=\"EN-AU\">But Pisa has so much more to offer to those who want to explore a little further.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: justify; line-height: 15.693333625793457px; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial; caret-color: #000000; color: #000000; font-style: normal;\"><span lang=\"EN-AU\">With that in mind, we\u2019ve decided to create this article. Let\u2019s look at the biggest landmarks \u2013 including that famous tower \u2013 the best food and the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.xtrawine.com\/search?q=terre+di+pisa\">great Italian wines that you\u2019ll find when you visit Pisa<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span lang=\"EN-AU\">Visiting the Leaning Tower<\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: justify; line-height: 15.693333625793457px; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial; caret-color: #000000; color: #000000; font-style: normal;\"><span lang=\"EN-AU\">Let\u2019s start with the most obvious attraction.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: justify; line-height: 15.693333625793457px; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial; caret-color: #000000; color: #000000; font-style: normal;\"><span lang=\"EN-AU\">The best news is that it\u2019s <strong>completely free to visit<\/strong> <strong>the grounds of the tower itself<\/strong>. You can join the throngs of visitors who hang around the grounds taking photos and eating picnics. In fact, enjoying a picnic with a nice glass of wine is a great way to drink in the sights around you. Of course, we\u2019re sure that you\u2019re going to want to take a silly photo of you <em>\u201cholding\u201d<\/em> up the tower to. Go right ahead, though you may have to compete with many more photographers for the best angle.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: justify; line-height: 15.693333625793457px; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial; caret-color: #000000; color: #000000; font-style: normal;\"><span lang=\"EN-AU\">But it\u2019s also possible to enter the tower itself. This will cost you a little bit of money. At the moment, it costs about <strong>20 euros to enter the tower<\/strong>. But for that, you\u2019ll be able to walk the <strong>same stairs that Galileo climbed so many centuries ago<\/strong>. For the scientifically-minded, there can be few greater joys to derive from the experience. Just make sure you give yourself some time, as there\u2019s usually a queue to get up to the tower.<\/span><!--more--><\/p>\n<h2><span lang=\"EN-AU\">Plan a Trip to Florence<\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: justify; line-height: 15.693333625793457px; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial; caret-color: #000000; color: #000000; font-style: normal;\"><span lang=\"EN-AU\">Yes, it may be odd to include a tip for visiting another region when you head to Pisa. But the <strong>gorgeous city of Florence is only an hour<\/strong> or so away on the bus or train.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: justify; line-height: 15.693333625793457px; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial; caret-color: #000000; color: #000000; font-style: normal;\"><span lang=\"EN-AU\">If you\u2019re staying in Pisa for a week or more, we definitely recommend paying a visit to Florence as well. The ride to the city is short enough to make it an easy day trip. Plus, you\u2019ll see even more wonderful art and architecture in the city.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span lang=\"EN-AU\">Take a Wine Tour<\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: justify; line-height: 15.693333625793457px; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial; caret-color: #000000; color: #000000; font-style: normal;\"><span lang=\"EN-AU\">Like every major Italian region, Pisa offers up a <strong>bunch of very tasty wines<\/strong> for you to experience. You can spend some time trawling the various wine bars that Pisa has to offer \u2013 and the city has a <strong>great nightlife<\/strong> \u2013 but we recommend going on one of the many <strong>wine tours<\/strong> that the city offers too.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: justify; line-height: 15.693333625793457px; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial; caret-color: #000000; color: #000000; font-style: normal;\"><span lang=\"EN-AU\">There are several tours to choose from. Some take you along gorgeous coastal regions while others take you to the wine regions that surround Pisa, as well as some major Pisa wineries. <em>Chianti fans<\/em>, in particular, will appreciate the Italian wine tours that take them directly from Pisa into<a href=\"https:\/\/www.xtrawine.com\/collections\/chianti-classico\"><strong> Chianti country<\/strong><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: justify; line-height: 15.693333625793457px; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial; caret-color: #000000; color: #000000; font-style: normal;\"><span lang=\"EN-AU\">Book a tour so that it\u2019s ready for when you arrive in Pisa. We promise that you won\u2019t regret it.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span lang=\"EN-AU\">Walk Along the River<\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: justify; line-height: 15.693333625793457px; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial; caret-color: #000000; color: #000000; font-style: normal;\"><span lang=\"EN-AU\">A <strong>gorgeous and wide river<\/strong> runs through Pisa and it\u2019s the perfect place to get a little exercise and unwind after a day spent looking at the sights. The gorgeous palaces that line the river make for <strong>some beautiful scenery<\/strong> for a late-afternoon stroll.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: justify; line-height: 15.693333625793457px; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial; caret-color: #000000; color: #000000; font-style: normal;\"><span lang=\"EN-AU\">But there\u2019s another reason why we recommend taking this walk. Along the banks of the river, you\u2019ll find a number of <strong>gelato bars<\/strong>. When the temperature\u2019s just starting to fall, there are few things more pleasurable to eating a portion of gelato as you watch the <strong>water ebb and flow<\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span lang=\"EN-AU\">Visit Ristorante La Scaletta<\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: justify; line-height: 15.693333625793457px; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial; caret-color: #000000; color: #000000; font-style: normal;\"><span lang=\"EN-AU\">Pisa is a coastal town, which means that restaurants in the region have <strong>plenty of access to fresh seafood<\/strong>. In fact, <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.xtrawine.com\/en\/the-most-famous-phrases-and-quotes-about-wine\/\">it\u2019s one of the many things that make the region famous<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: justify; line-height: 15.693333625793457px; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial; caret-color: #000000; color: #000000; font-style: normal;\"><span lang=\"EN-AU\">While many of them will provide you with a delectable meal, and some great wine to boot, we can\u2019t help but recommend the <strong>stunning <em>Ristorante La Scaletta<\/em><\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: justify; line-height: 15.693333625793457px; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial; caret-color: #000000; color: #000000; font-style: normal;\"><span lang=\"EN-AU\">This restaurant has been in business for <strong>over 150 years<\/strong> for a simple reason \u2013 it provides <strong>amazing food<\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: justify; line-height: 15.693333625793457px; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial; caret-color: #000000; color: #000000; font-style: normal;\"><span lang=\"EN-AU\">You\u2019ll find many of the classic seafood dishes here, but the restaurant delights in <strong>putting its own unique twist<\/strong> on many of the foods that it serves. If you\u2019re looking for great food that\u2019s a little bit different from the norm, we fully recommend giving <em>La Scaletta<\/em> a try.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span lang=\"EN-AU\">Visit the Cathedral<\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: justify; line-height: 15.693333625793457px; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial; caret-color: #000000; color: #000000; font-style: normal;\"><span lang=\"EN-AU\">With so much focus being placed on the tower, it\u2019s often easy to forget that Pisa plays host to a <strong>gorgeous cathedral<\/strong> too. You definitely have to take the time to visit it and explore its hallowed grounds, especially because it\u2019s so close to the famous tower.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: justify; line-height: 15.693333625793457px; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial; caret-color: #000000; color: #000000; font-style: normal;\"><span lang=\"EN-AU\">Find your way inside and you\u2019ll see <strong>one of Italy\u2019s most ornate and remarkable cathedrals<\/strong>. You simply have to visit it to experience it, as words can\u2019t do justice to the feeling that comes when you visit Pisa\u2019s cathedral.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: justify; line-height: 15.693333625793457px; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial; caret-color: #000000; color: #000000; font-style: normal;\"><span lang=\"EN-AU\">Here\u2019s a little tip for the photographers among you. Head up to the Bapistry and you\u2019ll see a small window that points out to the cathedral. This is a great place to take a couple of photos without having to fight through the people milling about outside.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span lang=\"EN-AU\">The Final Word<\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: justify; line-height: 15.693333625793457px; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial; caret-color: #000000; color: #000000; font-style: normal;\"><span lang=\"EN-AU\">There\u2019s so much to do in Pisa that it\u2019s easy to <strong>spend a week in the city<\/strong>. Those who want to relax can spend some time checking out the sights before enjoying the gorgeous coast and river. Those who fancy being a little more active have plenty to do too. Plus, Pisa offers easy transport links to Florence.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: justify; line-height: 15.693333625793457px; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial; caret-color: #000000; color: #000000; font-style: normal;\"><span lang=\"EN-AU\">Wine lovers will appreciate its close proximity to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.xtrawine.com\/collections\/chianti-classico\">Chianti region<\/a> and the various wine tours that operate out of Pisa. Finally, there are some <strong>amazing restaurants<\/strong> that serve some of the freshest seafood that you\u2019ll ever eat.
