Itinerary

1

Chiesa di Santa Maria della Spina

Sitting directly along the banks of the Arno River, this tiny Gothic jewel is celebrated for its elaborate white-marble exterior adorned with intricate spires and delicate statues. Originally built to house a thorn from Christ's crown of thorns, its striking architecture makes it one of Pisa’s most breathtaking landmarks, looking like a delicate marble jewelry box resting right by the water.

2

Borgo Stretto

Pisa’s most charming, vibrant medieval avenue, famous for its elegant vaulted arcades and cobblestone walkways. Lined with high-end boutiques, traditional cafes, and historic artisan bakeries, it offers an authentic atmosphere for window shopping and espresso breaks. As you stroll beneath the stone arches, you’ll experience the lively beat of daily life in the heart of the city

3

Piazza dei Cavalieri

Once the political center of medieval Pisa, Piazza dei Cavalieri is a breathtaking renaissance square redesigned by Giorgio Vasari. Today, it houses the prestigious Scuola Normale Superiore inside the grand Palazzo della Carovana, adorned with intricate sgraffito facades. Steeped in history and academic tradition, this impressive square is a quieter, magnificent alternative to the main tourist hotspots.

4

Piazza dei Miracoli

A UNESCO World Heritage Site framing four white-marble masterpieces: the Cathedral, Baptistery, Monumental Cemetery, and the world-famous Leaning Tower. Known for its distinct tilt caused by soft ground, this Romanesque bell tower offers stunning columned arcades and panoramic city views, anchoring the spiritual and architectural heart of Pisa on a sprawling green lawn.
