A small clip from the leaning tower of Pisa. It’s about a 25-30 minute walk from Pisa Centrale station or else by public transport it takes 15 minutes. The construction of the Leaning Tower of Pisa began in August 1173 and continued for about 200 years due to various interruptions, including wars. The tower began to lean during its construction due to a poorly laid foundation and loose substrate that could not properly support the structure The tilt worsened over the centuries until major stabilization work was done in the late 20th and early 21st centuries Efforts to stabilize the tower have included adding counterweights and soil extraction from beneath the foundations. The Leaning Tower of Pisa is one of Italy’s most iconic landmarks
