Pisa Centrale

by tryndade1

What is the name of the train station (trenitalia-train intercity) in Pisa that is close to the Pisa International Airport Galileo Galilei that takes me to La Spezia?

There is a train station at Pisa Aeroporto itself.

You can get on a train to Pisa Centrale striaght from Arrivals.....it takes all of 5 minutes or so (travelling very slowly) to get to P Centrale.

If you put 'Pisa Aeroporto' into

http://www.ferroviedellostato.it/homepage_en.html

you will get train times, details and fares for La Spezia. You will have to change at P Centrale anyway. No need to book tickets in advance for either section. Ticket machines at P Centrale (and probably at P Centrale, but can't remember) are easy to use and have English language options.

PISA
Field of miracles: It's not unusual to experience a sense of vertigo when standing on Pisa's Campo dei Miracoli (Field of Miracles). The dominant feature of this grassy plaza

THE FAMOUS LEANING TOWER OF PISA

It tilts nearly 17 feet from the perpendicular.
Gravitational oddities aside, the tower and gleaming marble buildings you see nearby comprise one of the most impressive architectural ensembles in Europe.

THE CAMPANILE

By the time its third story was complete in 1274, the bell tower, or campanile, had already begun to tilt. Nevertheless, construction continued, and the fame of the 180-foot Leaning Tower was, in effect, guaranteed. Although its interior is closed to visitors, the exterior of the Romanesque campanile is an architectural treat. Bring binoculars to view details such as the lively frieze near the top of the first level.

June 2001 Pisa reopened their beloved landmark with a celebration that included an opera performance by one of my favorite native son Andrea Bocelli(:-))

Gone are the tacky suspenders and steel rings that strangled the tower for much of the last decade. Still though, visitors must wait until November to make the dizzying climb to the top as experts are still studying the structure's stability. In the past, groups of tourists filled the 8 storey tower's staircase. This time, only 30 individuals will be allowed inside at a time.

Pisa, one of Europe's oldest university towns, is best seen on foot. Visitors can browse the Piazza delle Vettovglie's open air market on weekday mornings. There is an antique fair @ 2nd weekend of each month at the Ponte di Mezzo. Pisa is on the coast of Tuscany a region famed for its food, wine and beautiful hill towns. Many people visit Pisa as a day trip from Florence about an hour away by train.

Some people may not know that...

by calvin729

Some people may not know that there's ferry between the last two villages. (Venazza and Monterosso) Take that if you are tired of hiking. I enjoyed the boat a lot since the view is different from mountains. BTW, the beaches at Monterosso are so nice so you may want to get there early and spend more time there!
