One of the three tilting bell towers of Pisa, after famous Leaning Tower of Pisa and bell tower of Chiesa San Nicola. Tilting is almost 5 degrees towards the river, and also church itself when you enter feels "now right" - tilting to the right. Church was build in 11th century and restored several times in the original Romanesque style. Bell tower is build by white marble stones - lower part, and continued by red bricks - upper part. Its quite a walk from the city center, but definitely worth it to see. Walk in the shade of the linden trees around the river Arno is very calming too.

Little older (and more leaning) cousin of Pisa's landmark tourist attraction. Tranquil and situated next to the river Arno, perfect for a picnic.
