This ancient site was once a thriving Roman town that got buried by a volcanic eruption in 79 AD. The ruins are super well-preserved, giving a real look at how people lived almost 2,000 years ago. You’ll see streets, houses, shops, and even some original wooden furniture and mosaics.
- The place is most popular for its incredibly preserved buildings and mosaics, which survived thanks to the volcanic ash.
- You can walk through real Roman streets and peek into ancient homes, baths, and even a gym.
- Some of the original wooden doors, beds, and food have been found hereโsuper rare for ancient sites.
- See Real Ancient Life Up Close: The ruins are so well-preserved that you can actually see details like wall paintings, mosaics, and even wooden furniture. It's like stepping into a time machine. ๐ฐ๏ธ
- Less Crowded Than Other Sites: The site is usually quieter, so you can explore at your own pace and really take in the details without big crowds. ๐
- Unique Finds: You'll spot things here that you won't see at other ancient sites, like original wooden structures and even carbonized food. ๐
- Book tickets at least a few days in advance, especially during holidays or weekends.
- Thereโs no strict dress code, but comfy shoes are a must since youโll be walking on old stone streets.
- The best time to visit is early in the morning to avoid the midday heat and have more space to explore.
