The Leaning Tower of Pisa celebrates its 850th birthday.

Designated a World Heritage Site by UNESCO, together with the whole of Pisa's Piazza del Duomo, the tower is a fundamental example of the Romanesque style, in particular Pisan Romanesque, and a fine example of medieval engineering.

The narrow street was full of tourists, domestic and international, on their way to the Itsukushima Shrine 😉

The five-tiered pagoda (established in 1407) is also seen in the back. They enjoy a variety of local specialties 😉

Itsukushima Shrine Gate (Torii)

Miyajima, Hiroshima, Japan

The water level is going down – the Torii gate still looks floating, but once the water goes down, you can walk under this beautiful gate 😉

You can enjoy the view of the Torii gate during both low and high tides 😊
