If you thought Pisa has the only leaning tower in Italy, think again. The Due Torri, or "Two Towers," of Bologna are the symbolic and geographic center of the city, and they both happen to lean. The taller of the two, Torre degli Asinelli, has a slight and imperceptible tilt, so it's safe to climb the 320 feet to the top. The smaller Garisenda tower leans dramatically 10 feet, and it's currently undergoing efforts to stabilize it to ensure it doesn't move any further.
