Dawn at Piazza dei Miracoli/Piazza del Duomo - with Duomo and Campanile Monumentale in Pisa, Tuscany, Italy, Europe


The Piazza del Duomo is a wide, walled area to the north of central Pisa, recognized as one of the main centers for medieval art in the world. Partly paved and partly grassed, it is dominated by four great religious edifices: the Duomo, the Campanile - the cathedral's free standing bell tower, the Baptistry and the Camposanto. It is otherwise known as Piazza dei Miracoli - Square of Miracles. Pisa is a city in Tuscany, Central Italy, on the right bank of the mouth of the River Arno on the Tyrrhenian Sea. It is the capital city of the Province of Pisa. Although Pisa is known worldwide for its leaning tower, the city of over 88,332 residents contains more than 20 other historic churches, several palaces and various bridges across the River Arno. The city is also home of the University of Pisa, which has a history going back to the 12th century and also has the mythic Napoleonic Scuola Normale Superiore di Pisa and Sant'Anna School of Advanced Studies as the best Superior Graduate Schools in Italy.
