THE LEANING TOWER OF PISA ITALY

THE LEANING TOWER OF PISA ITALY

Was Reopened To The Public On The 15th December 2001 The First Time For 12 Years, The Leaning Tower Was Shut In 1990 After It Began To Lean Too Far.

Visitors Will Be Restricted To Groups Of 30 For The 40 Minute Guided Tour. The Work To Straighten The Tower Cost $25 Million.

Its Tilt 4.5 Meters From The Vertical In 1990 Has Been Reduced By 40.6 Centimeters. Should They Have Completely Straightened The Tower ?

I Visited The Leaning Tower In Late December 2001 And Climbed The 294 Steps To The Top, What A View !

Torre Pendente Di Pisa Built In The Years 1173 - 1350, The Lean Became Obvious In 1178, The Walls Are 8ft Thick At The Base.
