I often dreamed about Pisa when I was a boy. I read about the famous building called

the Leaning Tower of Pisa .But when I read the word Pisa I was thinking of pizza .I

thought this tower was a place to buy pizza .It must be the best place to buy pizza in

the world I thought.
Many years later finally saw the Leaning Tower. I knew then that is was Pisa and no

pizza .But there was still something special about it for me .The tower got its name

because it really does lean to one side. Some people want to try to fix it .They are

afraid it may fall over and they don`t like it leans over the city.
I do not think it`s a good idea to try to fix it .The tower probably will not fall down

it is 600 years old. why should anything happen to it now? And if you ask me I like what it looks like. To me it is a very human kind of leaning .Nothing is perfect it

seems to say.
And who cares? Why do people want things to be perfect? Imperfect things may be

more interesting .Let`s take the tower in Pisa. Why is it so famous? There are many

other

older more beautiful towers in Italy. But Pisa tower is the most famous. People come

from all over the world to see it.
