Pisa photo diary


The view from the top of the tower that leans // Beautiful marble // Inside the glorious cathedral // Geometric mosaics // The soaring confines of the Baptistry // Postcard perfect

Pisa was so much fun. Sure it was touristy and silly but it's the leaning tower after all. If you're going there you might as well indulge the kitsch. What I loved the most, however, was the Baptistry, beautiful and sparse, in contrast to the extravagance of the Cathedral (the roof was gold, the roof was gold), with a spectacular dome and that peculiar quiet, empty stillness of a sacred space.
