Pisa has become world famous because of one building and has so much more to offer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<p>Pisa lies at the confluence of the Arno and Auser rivers. The circumstances that led to the founding of the city are not known. However, the foundation of the city probably goes back to the Etruscans, as archaeological finds have been made here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the 11th century, Pisa developed into a maritime republic, although it is not located on the sea. The city&#8217;s most famous buildings were built at this time: Pisa Cathedral (1063\/1174), the Leaning Tower as an independent campanile (1173) and the Baptistery (1153). Visitors from all over the world are drawn here every year, but many only stay in the city for a short time. So they miss out on the beautiful palazzi, churches and squares that characterise life in the city.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Discover the sights of Pisa<\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"posts_cards overflow-x-scroll flex sm:flex-wrap mb-16 -mx-6\"><div class=\"m-w-10\/12 sm:w-1\/2 px-6 py-6\">\n                <div class=\"w-full h-full overflow-hidden shadow-md hover:shadow-lg relative\">\n                    <img decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"400\" src=\"https:\/\/fromplacetoplace.travel\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/07\/pisa-dom-und-turm-800x400.jpeg\" class=\"w-full wp-post-image\" alt=\"Pisa Dom und Schiefer Turm\" \/>\n                  <div class=\"px-6 py-4\" >\n                    <div class=\"leading-snug font-bold text-3xl mb-3\" >Piazza dei Miracoli - the square around the Leaning Tower of Pisa<\/div >\n                    <p class=\"text-gray-700 text-xl mb-16\">The square around the Cathedral got its name from an Italian writer and poet who wrote about the \"Meadow of Miracles\" (Piazza dei Miracoli) in his book.
