Walking around this central square, one can find the Palace of the Scuola Normale of Pisa, the Church of S. Stefano and the Palace of the Orologio, where Count Ugolino della Gherardesca was imprisoned and condemned to die, as narrated by Dante in the Divine Comedy.

This is the second most beautiful Piazza in Pisa, after the Piazza dei Miracoli, in my opinion. The shape of this square is that of a trapezoid. The main building is the Palazzo della Carovana, now Scuola Normale Superiore founded by Napoleon, which currently serves as extension of the local university. There are 2 churches and other historic buildings that beautifully sorround the square.

Located on the bank of the Arno River, this church is Pisa's finest example of Gothic fancy.
Reviewed By edm0ndmarcd - Iroquois, Canada
This beautiful Pisan gothic church, which reportedly had one of the thorns of Jesus crown, was moved from a lower level by the river to its current location, just overlooking the river. At sunset, the sunlight enters through the coloured glass windows for a truly magnificent effect.

Miracoli! Gabriele D’Annunzio effectively condenses the wonder and admiration that catch whoever visits the Piazza del Duomo of Pisa.
Reviewed By AlbertSalichs - Manresa, Spain
Piazza dei Miracoli is located in Pisa, in Tuscany Region, in Italy. Really, it is the most turistic point in the city, where you can see 4 incredible places: Leaning Tower (in fact, it is the bell tower of the cathedral), Duomo (the cathedral), Camposanto (the cemetery) and baptistery: Incredible buildings! the tower is the most known, and it is wonderful, especially if you go up (with a prebooking always, in August-2019, when we visited this place), but the other buildings are also great. Pitifully, always the square is full of tourists. All want to visit this place! A top on world! (See also Leaning Tower of Pisa, Duomo di Pisa, Camposanto, Baptistery of St. John and Centro Storico)

The Berignone forest is an unexpected place. Roads, paths, meadows, forest, streams. A somewhat magical place in the heart of Tuscany, crossed by motorbike and on foot. Must see.
10. Murale Tuttomondo di Keith Haring

Reviewed By aallton - Coventry, United Kingdom
It's so amazing to see such a fantastic piece of late 1980's street art by a famous, gay, american artist, painted on the side of a catholic building in Italy! For any fans of Haring's work, this really is breathtaking. Poignant, but brilliant at the same time. Painted when he knew he was dying, but filling the wall with burst of colour and positivity. Also it's in great condition, a credit to Pisa for caring for this piece There's a cafe opposite- perfect place to take the view in.
