For a summer city break that’s packed with opportunities to see sights, discover hidden gems and eat lots of downright delectable food, you couldn’t ask for more than a visit on cheap flights to Pisa. Best known for its iconic Leaning Tower, this city has much more to offer than just an architectural accident, though of course it’s a great place to start!
As it happens, you’ll find the Leaning Tower in the Piazza Del Miracoli, which is also home to the Baptistery, the grand Cathedral and the Campostanto Cemetery. These four buildings were constructed between the 11th and 15th century to reflect the power and dominance of Pisa in that era, and despite the jaunty angle that the Tower soon acquired, the Piazza Del Miracoli is still widely acknowledged as one of the most magnificent squares ever built in the world.
Once you’ve taken lots of amusing souvenir photos in the Piazza Del Miracoli, there’s so much more to discover. The famous museums of the Museo Del Duomo and the Museo Delle Sinopie are just a short distance from the Tower, and are a fantastic way to get an even deeper sense of Pisa’s rich history.
When you feel the need to refuel, head to the Piazza Garibaldi for cheap eats and affordable drinks, and of course don’t forget to sample plenty of Pisa’s local plonk – Chianti! Of course this is just scratching the surface of the fantastic attractions of Pisa, so why not book your cheap flights to Pisa with Jet2.com now and seek them all out for yourself?
