All of the people in the world has already name Pisa because of the tower. Not so many people knows the other interesting things Pisa has to offer.
It is a mix of various architectural styles grown up as time passed by.
I live there, so before I start with my review about the church, I just may give you some suggestions in the case you'd like to visit Pisa.
My first thought about Pisa was that I didn't like it a lot. A quite calm city to live, but not so typical, very different to my born city. However my opinion has changed in this three years I spent in this place.
