Ponte Vecchio

Initially home to butchers, tanners, and farmers, the shops are now occupied by jewelers, art dealers and souvenir sellers.

Piazza dei Miracoli (Square of Miracles)
Discover the Piazza dei Miracoli in Pisa, a UNESCO World Heritage site and home to an extraordinary collection of medieval architecture. Marvel at the Leaning Tower, a symbol of Pisa's ingenuity and misfortune, and explore the stunning Pisa Cathedral. Admire the Baptistery, the largest in Italy, and the Camposanto Monumentale, a monumental cemetery said to be built on soil from Golgotha. Experience the historical significance and architectural splendor of this remarkable square.
