4. The Temple of Jupiter dominates the north side of the Forum, with Mount Vesuvius scenically rising behind. When the colony was founded (80 BC), the temple underwent a radical renovation and became a real Capitolium with the three cult statues of Jupiter, Juno and Minerva, which looked like those of the Capitolium in Rome, placed on a high base so as to make them visible to whoever passed in the Forum square.

5. The Macellum consists of a tuff quadriporticus with a hall for worship in an elevated position on the eastern side, in line with the entrance. The copies of two marble statues, a female and a male armed, are found on the niches of the side wall, together with the fragment of a larger statue, probably pertaining to an emperor, Titus or Vespasian, indicating how this area was intended for the imperial cult. To its left is a room for meetings of a sacred board and to the right a large room with a masonry counter perhaps for fish to be sold.

6. Via dell’Abbondanza was the ancient main street (decumanus maximus) of ancient Pompeii, which ran across the city in the direction east/west from the Forum to the Porta Sarno. In ancient times the street was crowded and noisy with many shops, workshops ("officinae”), cafes, snack-bars and restaurants for food and drink

7. The Lupanar is the most famous official brothel of Pompeii, located in a narrow side street near the heart of the city. This small, two-story stone building is unique for its purpose-built design, featuring five small rooms on the ground floor with built-in masonry beds. It is world-renowned for its well-preserved erotic frescoes displayed above the doors, which likely served as a visual "menu" of services, and for the hundreds of graffiti left by visitors, providing a raw and fascinating look into the social life and language of ancient Roman plebeians.

Women's and men's quarters had separate entrances.

Like many buildings in Pompeii, the baths were heavily damaged during the earthquake of 62 AD.

About Napoli

Lidenskabeligt og kaotisk under Vesuv er Napoli pizzaens fødested og porten til Pompeji, Capri og Amalfikysten.

Den historiske bykerne, et tæt net af gader anlagt af de gamle grækere, er en verden af kirker, helligdomme på gadehjørner og vasketøj spændt ud mellem altaner. Spaccanapoli skærer lige igennem den, Via San Gregorio Armeno er kantet af værksteder for julekrybber, og Sansevero-kapellet rummer den forbløffende Tilslørede Kristus. Under jorden afslører tunneler og cisterner den græske og romerske by nedenunder.

Top-ranked sights in Napoli: Mt. Vesuvius (Monte Vesuvio), Via dei Tribunali, Naples Historic Center (Napoli Centro Storico).
