3. La Torre di Pisa (Leaning Tower of Pisa)

The site of this grand leaning tower is mesmerizing. Photos simply don't capture how far the tower actually does lean. The structure was built as the bell tower for the neighboring Duomo and the architecture was carefully planned before the building was constructed. Unfortunately, the architects did not take into account that the foundation consisted of predominantly sandy ground, thus causing the tower to begin to lean. Today, you can climb the 294 stairs to the top, but bear in mind that visits are limited to 30 minutes and only 30 people at a time are allowed inside. Children under age eight are not permitted. During the summer, purchase your tickets often sell out so try order your in advance.   (© 10Best)
