Pompeii, the unearthed city from Ancient Rome

Visiting the most recognized cities of Italy is an easy task. However, from Ice tech we want to go further and tell you all about them. Today, we take a trip back in time in order to tell you all about Pompeii, the unearthed city from Ancient Rome. You’ll hallucinate!

Pompeii, the unearthed city from Ancient Rome

In Campania, Naples, Pompeii is a city buried by the great eruption of Vesuvius in 79 BC.

Its conservation is unbeatable, being possible to appreciate its buildings, decorative complements and even the remains of its inhabitants. In fact, it is possible for you to hear the story of the “Pompeii onanist” who revolutionized the whole world.

It was one of the richest cities in all Italy until it first suffered a great earthquake that destroyed the city and years later it was devastated by the volcano, which left just ashes.

This was forgotten until, in the Sixteenth Century again gained prominence and began to be investigated. Since then, more than 45 hectares of land have been unearthed.

There is no doubt that the visit will not be short. The ruins are very extensive, being possible to see buildings every day, temples, basilicas, an entire Italian city!

If you want to remain speechless, you cannot miss the lupanar, a brothel of the time where you see beds made of stones and even erotic paintings.

And, if you like challenges, you cannot miss the exhibition of figures of citizens who were trapped by the ashes. Spooky!

Mount Vesuvius remains an active volcano surrounded by an urban area where more than 3 million people live, and it is likely to erupt again in a few years, which may be devastating 🙁

Take advantage of this vacations in order to see the wonderful excavations of Pompeii. Take some comfortable shoes and a good camera so you don’t miss anything 😉
