The Tuscan city of Pisa is world famous for its Leaning Tower, so if you're planning a
trip there make sure to consider employing our Pisa car hire services when you budget
your trip. While indeed famous for the Leaning Tower, the town has so many more other
equally or even more interesting attractions to offer.
Pisa is very accessible by road, rail and air, when it comes to the Pisa Airport, it is
actually the main airport for the entire region of Tuscany, and as such it sees a lot of
traffic both domestic as well as international, which in turn means that we also offer Pisa
Airport car hire services so that any visitor can pick up their rental car from the airport
from the moment they touch down.
First time visitors to Pisa will usually only know about the Tower however the city
wouldn't be what it is without its University. The entire vibe of Pisa is not influenced by
its many historic buildings, it is actually animated by the student population who
organizes parties, shows and all manner of cultural events and who evidently fill the city
at night.
The city is divided into four historical quarters and as mentioned earlier, there are many
more things to see than just he Leaning Tower, however that will probably be the first
thing that you'll want to see.
The Tower is located in the Piazza dei Miracoli or Field of Miracles and is just one of
several attractions there. This is also where you can see the Duomo di Pisa – the
Cathedral of Pisa – which is a splendid building containing artwork from the likes of
Giambologna, Della Robbia and other major artists.
In this plaza you'll also find the Battistero, or Baptistry, a large round Romanesque dome
featuring many sculptures as well as a great view up top.
The Piazza is also home to the Campo Santo Monumentale, the Museo del Opera del
Duomo and the Museo delle Sinopie, and all of these are just within walking distance of
the Leaning Tower, the city on the whole has many more things to offer. This is the main
reason for why employing our Pisa car hire services will pay off in the end.
