Lonely Planet review

No Tuscan sight is more immortalised in kitsch souvenirs than the iconic tower piercing Piazza dei Miracoli, also called Campo dei Miracoli (Field of Miracles) and Piazza del Duomo. One of the world's loveliest and busiest squares, with its sprawling green lawns and crowds propping up the tower for the camera, this piazza showcases one of Europe's most extraordinary concentrations of Romanesque splendour - the cathedral, baptistry and tower.

Predictably, the square is protected as a Unesco World Heritage Site. Less obvious is the fact that all three monuments do, in fact, lean.
