The city Pompeii offers the vision of a Roman city frozen in time due to the devastating eruption of Vesuvius in 79 AD. You will see Pompeii before and after the tragic eruption of 2000 years ago through the artefacts found during excavations and the remains of houses, shops, bathrooms and brothels. You’ll imagine the moment when their world has disappeared. Pompei provides a complete and clear picture of the society and daily life of the Romans.
