Leaning Tower of Pisa



I went to the Leaning Tower of Pisa for vacation. It was really fun to visit Italy. It was amazing how far the tower really leaned. It started leaning before the third tower was even made. It embarrassed the Pisans. The tower stands 185 feet. The architect's flaw was having a foundation only ten feet thick. Now, because of its leaning design flaw, it is one of the most famous sights to see in the world. It was amazing to stare up at how tall it was. It doesn't sound that tall, but when you look up at it, it is HUGE! After we visited the Leaning Tower of Pisa we ate some pizza.
