Pisa, best known for the famous Leaning Tower. There is a lot more to Pisa than just its tower and we were going to spend a weekend in Pisa to find out! There are many piazzas filled with charming Italian architecture and streets filled performers entertaining locals and visitors. I had no idea Pisa had over 60,000 students enrolled at its university, so even without many tourists in the quiet seasons, it can still have an air of buzz about the place. Pisa lies in the region of Tuscany, a popular region in Italy that also includes cities like Florence, Siena, Lucca, Arezzo, and Livorno. The beauty of being in Pisa is not only Miracle Square, the home of the Pisa Baptistery, Pisa Basilica and Leaning Tower but the mere fact that you can also be in Florence in less than one hour. Pisa has regular trains to and from Florence, at least 3 in one hour.
