La Torre di Pisa Official Website

Well, here it is, almost the end of the year, and still time left to put on our cyber traveling shoes. Today’s Family First site uses the magic of the Internet to take us around the world to visit one of the most famous buildings of all time, and all without leaving the comfort of your computer.

The site is called La Torre di Pisa Official Website, or in English, the Leaning Tower of Pisa Official Website. Since A.D. 1194 (that is in the last century, we can say now) this building has been astounding and confounding visitors with it’s continual leaning yet never falling stance. Here you can visit the tower, courtesy of a photographic study that was made from 1991 to 1994. You can find out about the ongoing restoration projects, as well as some of the fascinating history of this most unusual structure. There are over 6400 photographs that can be viewed interactively.
This site makes use of cutting edge Internet technology to make its online presentation. It is truly a unique way for armchair travelers to visit one of the modern wonders of the world.
