Pisa's UNESCO Square: A Self-Guided Audio Tour
Pisa's medieval glory is alive in its Piazza dei Miracoli, where four magnificent monuments tell the story of one of Italy's greatest maritime republics. On this self-guided walking tour, you'll explore every corner of this UNESCO World Heritage Site, from the world's largest baptistery to the city's famous Leaning Tower. Starting at the Porta Nuova entrance gate, you'll discover the baptistery's soaring interior, the cathedral's golden baroque ceiling, and its Gothic pulpit carved with over 350 individual figures. In the monumental cemetery, hear about restored 14th-century frescoes destroyed by Allied bombing in 1944, and learn how Pisa's medieval rivalry with Florence shaped this sacred space. The tour ends at the Tower of Pisa — the world's most famous architectural mistake — having traced the full story of a city whose maritime power during the Crusades funded one of history's most remarkable squares.

Where this sits in Florence
Florence is about 8 min by road from Florence Peretola Airport. Compact enough to cross on foot in half an hour, and holding more Renaissance art than most countries. Busy in the middle and calm five minutes out; the Oltrarno side of the river is where people actually live and eat.
