Herculaneum
A visit to ancient city of Herculaneum is like traveling back in time. You will live the atmosphere of everyday life of a small, elegant and refined Roman city.
According to myth, Herculaneum was built by Hercules on a volcanic spur overlooking the sea and was destroyed, along with other cities, by Vesuvius eruption in 79 AD: a blanket of mud and pyroclastic materials about 20 meters tall, which solidified year after year, preserving the remains of this city in an extraordinary way.
