POMPEI AND THE VESUVIUS
The catastrophe took place in 79 AD. Buried under tons of ashes and lapilli, nowadays the ancient city of Pompeii boasts an amazingly preserved architecture and buildings as well as materials discovered in houses or shops, which offers a touching testimony of what daily life was like at that time. The excavations, started in 1709, have brought to light an archaeological, artistic and historical heritage of extraordinary value that |
attracts million of visitors every year. Majestic and disquieting, the Vesuvius has always been the main protagonist of the Neapolitan landscape. |
