1. The Leaning Tower of Pisa, famous for its tilt, is the bell tower of the Cathedral of Pisa, located in Tuscany, Italy. Built in Romanesque style, its construction began in 1173 and lasted almost 200 years. Approximately 56 meters high, the tower consists of eight floors, including the bell tower, and is made of white marble. Its slope, caused by a subsidence of the sandy soil, was evident from the first years of construction. Today the inclination is approximately 3.97 degrees. The Leaning Tower of Pisa is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and attracts millions of tourists every year. Considerable restoration and stabilization work in the 1990s allowed it to be preserved, making it a symbol of engineering and resilience.

2. Lucca, located in Tuscany, Italy, is a city rich in history and culture, known for its well-preserved Renaissance walls that surround it. Founded by the Etruscans and becoming a Roman colony in 180 BC, Lucca has a historic center characterized by medieval streets, towers, squares and ancient churches. The walls of Lucca, built between the 16th and 17th centuries, are today an elevated pedestrian park approximately 4 km long, ideal for walking and cycling. Inside the walls, there are numerous historic buildings, including the Cathedral of San Martino, with its Gothic façade and the famous Volto Santo, and the Basilica of San Frediano, with its golden mosaic. The city is also famous for its medieval towers, such as the Guinigi Tower, crowned by a hanging garden of holm oaks, and the Torre delle Ore, which offers a panoramic view of the city. The Piazza dell'Anfiteatro, an ancient Roman arena transformed into an oval square, is one of the most evocative places in Lucca.
