The Leaning Tower of Pisa is located in the Pisa Cathedral in the central Italian city of Pisa. It is an independent bell tower of the church. The Leaning Tower of Pisa is a historic and legendary building. It is famous for its unique tilt angle. It is known as one of the three most amazing towers in the world, along with the Yingxian Wooden Pagoda in China and the Eiffel Tower in Paris, France.
The Leaning Tower of Pisa was built in 1173 and was presided over by Nanno Pisano. It was originally designed to be built vertically. Due to the unstable foundation and soft soil, the tower began to tilt to the southeast just one year after construction began. In 1178, the bell tower had been built to the fourth floor, and the tilt became more and more obvious, so the project was forced to stop. Half a century later, in 1231, in order to correct the tilted tower, the project began to tilt in the opposite direction. In 1278, the bell tower was built to the seventh floor. At this time, it was obvious that the tower was curved, and the top of the tower protruded 1.4 meters from the foundation. In the following centuries, architects tried various methods to correct it, but the tower continued to tilt. In 1990, the Leaning Tower of Pisa reached its maximum tilt angle, with the top of the tower protruding 5.4 meters from the foundation. Due to the large tilt angle, the Leaning Tower of Pisa was closed again, and the &quot;earth-digging method&quot; was used to adjust the center of gravity of the Leaning Tower. In 2013, the Leaning Tower of Pisa finally stopped its tilting trend. After professional measurement, the current Leaning Tower of Pisa tilts at an angle of 3.99&deg;, with the top of the tower protruding 4.5 meters from the foundation.

[Piazza dei Miracoli]

A group of religious buildings are scattered on the large lawn of Piazza dei Miracoli, including the Cathedral (built from 1063 to the 13th century), the Baptistery (built from 1153 to the 14th century), the Bell Tower (i.e. the Leaning Tower of Pisa) and the Cemetery (built in 1174). Their exterior walls are all made of milky white marble. Each is relatively independent but forms a unified Romanesque architectural style. They are all masterpieces of art in the history of architecture. Piazza dei Miracoli is one of the centers of the essence of medieval art and has a profound impact on future architectural design. The Leaning Tower of Pisa is located behind the Pisa Cathedral.

The facade design of the church and other buildings such as the West Hall are almost perfect, an organic combination of squares and triangles. It also has a dome, but many people do not notice it because the halo of the Leaning Tower is too dazzling.

Battistero

The Pisa Baptistery, also known as the Baptistery of St. John (Battistero di San Giovanni) is a Roman Catholic ecclesiastical building in Pisa, Italy. Its construction began in 1152, making it the second oldest building on Pisa&#39;s Piazza dei Miracoli, between the cathedral and the bell tower, which is now the famous Leaning Tower of Pisa. The Baptistery was designed by Diotisalvi, whose signature can be seen on two columns inside the building, dated 1153.
