3. The temple dedicated to the goddess Isis shows the multicultural character of the city of Pompeii open to trade with the East and Greece. The cell dedicated to the divinity stands on a high podium in the center of the courtyard in the sacred area. There is also a large hall for ceremonies, two other rooms and the purgatorium, a room intended for purification where the water of the Nile flows.

4. This big house owes its name to a portrait of Menandro, an Athenian playwright, placed in the portico and it represents the typical example of the home of a high-ranking family. The lobby is frescoed with scenes from the Iliad and Odyssey, a real wonder!

About Napels

Gepassioneerd en chaotisch onder de Vesuvius is Napels de geboorteplaats van de pizza en de poort naar Pompeji, Capri en de Amalfikust.

Het historische centrum, een dicht stratenraster dat de oude Grieken aanlegden, is een wereld van kerken, straatkapelletjes en wasgoed dat tussen balkons hangt. Spaccanapoli snijdt er recht doorheen, de Via San Gregorio Armeno staat vol werkplaatsen voor kerststallen, en de Sansevero-kapel herbergt de verbluffende Gesluierde Christus. Onder de grond onthullen tunnels en reservoirs de Griekse en Romeinse stad eronder.

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