Pompeii: the buried city
from the theatres to the forum (2,30 h)
Each city destroyed by the eruption on 79 Ad is fascinating. Pompei is the largest one; a part of it is still buried but here, more than in the other ones, people understand how was a typical city 2000 years ago.
On this tour we will see the traditional roman buildings: theatres, houses, baths, temples and the heart of the city, the Forum (the main square). The last part of the visit will be in the “Antiquarium”, the museum into the archeological site: it was reopened to the public recently. Full of artefacts, inside it there are some plaster casts of the victims.
