Pompeii
Pompeii is located about 30 km from Naples and 20 km from Sorrento is the ancient city destroyed by the famous eruption of Vesuvius in 79 d.c. The excavations cover an area of about 66 hectares.
Along the way you can admire the grand court, with its impressive temples, shops, craft shops, patrician houses with fascinating frescoes and mosaics and the impressive plaster casts of the bodies of the victims of the tragic eruption of 79 d.c.

Archeological excavations are open to the public from 09:00 am until 18:00 every day of the week.
