The Leaning Tower of Pisa
No matter how many times you have seen the iconic tower in photos it is still due inspiring when viewed in person. the tower is the campanile, or bell tower, of the cathedral of Pisa, known worldwide for its unintended tilt. The tower's tilt began during construction in the 12th century, caused by an inadequate foundation on ground too soft on one side to properly support the structure's weight. The tilt increased in the decades before the structure was completed in the 14th century. It gradually increased until the structure was stabilized (and the tilt partially corrected) by efforts in the late 20th and early 21st centuries.
