Pompeii Archaeological Areas
Via Villa dei Misteri, Pompeii , Italy 80045 Map
Overview
Owing to the eruption of volcano Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD many Roman cities and towns were buried. In the modern age, these partially buried regions were re-discovered, and the Archaeological Areas of Pompeii is one such treasure. Herculaneum, Pompeii and Torre Annunziata were completely lost for nearly 1500 years. Declared as a World Heritage Site by UNESCO it attracts tourists, archaeologists and geology students from all over. A visit to the excavations gives you a pretty good idea of what life must have been like here two thousand years ago. Truly, a must visit for history lovers!
