Highlights
The eruption of Mt. Vesuvius in 79 C.E. was a paradoxical thing: it was truly cataclysmic but it also yielded to history one of the most extensive and intact ruins of an ancient city. That settlement was Pompeii. The spectacular ruins are one of Italy’s most visited sites, so queues are long but not if you’ve got a skip-the-line ticket! When Vesuvius erupted life in Pompeii perished in an instant. What you see today lends an extraordinary win-dow into life in Roman times. With over 50 hectares to explore, you can walk around the Forum with Vesuvius in the back-ground or sit under a tree and marvel at the spectacular amphitheater. There are remnants of the all-important aqueduct, street fountains, public baths, private houses, businesses, statues, fre-scoes, as well as hundreds of haunting plaster casts of lava-fried locals! Start your experience with the Magic Ancient Pompeii Virtual Museum Experience and travel back in time! After roam into the ruins at your pace!

About Pompeii
Pompeii is a Roman town near Naples frozen in ash when Mount Vesuvius erupted in AD 79, with streets, villas and frescoes preserved beneath the volcano.
Pompeii was a thriving Roman town when Vesuvius buried it under ash and pumice in AD 79. Excavation, begun in the eighteenth century, has uncovered paved streets with stepping stones, shops, bakeries, bathhouses and the forum. The amphitheatre, among the oldest Roman ones to survive, and the grand House of the Faun show the range of life, and plaster casts of the dead record the final moments of some residents.
