Preservation Efforts and Cultural Significance
Over the years, significant efforts have been made to prevent the Leaning Tower of Pisa from collapsing, including the installation of counterweights and soil extraction. The tower now leans at an angle of about 3.97 degrees, which is much less than its original tilt. The Tower of Pisa attracts millions of visitors each year, who come not only to marvel at its unique structure but also to learn about its history and the challenges faced during its construction and preservation. It has become a symbol of Italy’s rich cultural heritage and engineering ingenuity. Shutdown123
