I thought Pisa only had the Leaning Tower.

#Sign up for tripbest July Hotel Tester I used to naively think that Pisa only had the Leaning Tower and the Piazza dei Miracoli. It turns out that the city is more than a road along the Arno River, one of Italy's main rivers, which flows through the city of Pisa and Florence. The road connecting the two banks of the Arno is called "lungarno" The extended streets of Lungarni are famous for their magnificent buildings at the mouth of the Arno River downstream to the Port of Pisa. Once upon a time, they were the squares in the center of the city, so there were those gorgeous palaces, which were the residences of wealthy families who chose Lungarni as their residence until it was completely rebuilt in 1871. This riverside is also a breeding ground for literati. Pisa's Lungarni inspired poets and writers such as Lord Byron and PB Shelley to write poetry. Lord Byron once described it as "Standing on the marble bridge, if your eyes are not blinded, cast your eyes to its burning bottom; then follow the graceful curve of the buildings on the Lunno River, and the huge tower looming in the darkness in the distance; tell me, what can be better than the sunset in Pisa."
