There were used the most beautiful marble types. Also, the cathedral is decorated with 16-17th-century wall paintings.
Not far from the cathedral has placed the most recognizable architectural sightseeing of the world – the Leaning Tower of Pisa. The Tower has begun to build in 1173 and was finished only within 200 years. This is an unusual tower thanks to the unintended tilt. Nevertheless, the tower has been staying for more than 700 years.

This Baptistery is the largest in Italy, its height is 54 meters, with a diameter of 34 meters.
