Have you ever wondered what the most famous sights in the world used to look like when they were just built centuries ago? The Leaning Tower of Pisa is one of Italy's most iconic landmarks, and it has been leaning since its first day. Another iconic destination is in Egypt. Unlike the Pyramids, the Sphinx was carved directly from the bedrock of the Giza Plateau. Until today, it's one of the largest statues in the world, and although it looks a tad beaten today, it used to have a proper face with a nose and a beard. #brightside Credit: CC BY 2.0 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/2.0/: Collections of the Egyptian Museum: By Prof. Mortel – https://flic.kr/p/2nmKLVK, https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=118201344 By Institute for the Study of the Ancient World: The Baths of Caracalla (I), https://flic.kr/p/cvJeG1, https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=52696161 The Baths of Caracalla (III), https://flic.kr/p/cvJeNm, https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=52696167 Khafra – Quefrén: By José-Manuel Benito Álvarez, CC BY-SA 2.5 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/2.5/, https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=734659 CC BY-SA 3.0 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/: Leaning tower staircase: By Lonewolf1976 at en.wikipedia, , https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=6085923 By Joanbanjo: Cos de campanes de la torre de Pisa, https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=20108075 Barana superior de la torre de Pisa, https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=20108090 Piazza dei Miracoli: By RiccardoT – https://web.archive.org/web/20161020153938/http://www.panoramio.com/photo/68639371, https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=54611417 Pisa: By Luís Ascenso – https://500px.com/photo/200443125/Pisa-by-Luís-Ascenso, https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=71467621 Pisa – Torre Pendente: By Geobia, https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=19025019 The view from Palatino: By Vitold Muratov, https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=10267912 Esfinge de Ramses: By Valentino58, https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=32814635 Kolos van Rhodos: By Paul Hermans, https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=8675888 Cathedral Square, Pisa: By Arne Müseler – www.arne-mueseler.com, CC BY-SA 3.0 de https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/de/deed.en, https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=116752053 CC BY-SA 4.0 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/: Baths of Caracalla: By Ethan Doyle White, https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=69573576 Rom, Caracalla-Thermen: By Orell Witthuhn, https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=67742323 The Baths of Caracalla: By Vyacheslav Argenberg – http://www.vascoplanet.com/, https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=94356920 Reconstruction drawing of the Baths of Caracalla: By Lruiz094, https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=96986360 Animation is created by Bright Side. —————————————————————————————- Music by Epidemic Sound https://www.epidemicsound.com Check our Bright Side podcast on Spotify and leave a positive review! https://open.spotify.com/show/0hUkPxD34jRLrMrJux4VxV Subscribe to Bright Side: https://goo.gl/rQTJZz —————————————————————————————- Our Social Media: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/brightside Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/brightside.official TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@brightside.official?lang=en Stock materials (photos, footages and other): https://www.depositphotos.com https://www.shutterstock.com https://www.eastnews.ru —————————————————————————————- For more videos and articles visit: http://www.brightside.me
