For tourists visiting Italy, a great number of wonders are waiting to be discovered. In addition to Venice’s Grand Canal and the Colosseum in Rome, the Tower of Pisa is a must-see sight. Though the tower is admired for its beautiful architecture, it is more widely known for its unique tilt. The Tower of Pisa sits in the city of Pisa’s Piazza del Duomo, a square of great religious importance. The eight-story tower, which was designed as a bell tower for the cathedral in the square, began construction in 1173.
