Archeological Park of Pompeii
Pompeii, Italy
The Archaeological Park of Pompeii preserves the ancient Roman city buried by the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD. Sealed for centuries beneath volcanic ash, Pompeii was rediscovered in the 18th century and today is the only archaeological site in the world that provides a complete picture of an ancient Roman city. Visitors can walk through streets, houses, and temples filled with remarkably preserved frescoes and mosaics. This park is a unique window into Roman daily life
