Leaning Tower of Pisa Stands Tall: Photos : Discovery News
A nice picture essay on the LTP, now newly cleaned and restored. A project in the 1990s managed to straighten it up by 17 inches and make it stable for, supposedly, the next 300 years. It does look nice and white again (hover mouse over pictures to get captions). Like your teeth, the marble on the tower was damaged by the crookedness--pressure, stress, sun exposure.
