Best Pompeii Tours from Milan

One of the world’s best-preserved ghost towns is where time literally stands still for its fossilized inhabitants. Pompeii, which was buried in ash and pumice in 79 AD after an eruption of Mt. Vesuvius, is the world’s largest time capsule. Visitors today can roam this excavated Roman city and UNESCO Heritage Site where a walk on its remarkably intact streets will take you back in time. Some of Pompeii’s most impressive ruins include the Temple of Venus, Temple of Jupiter, the Forum, the Lupanare (a brothel) with its erotic frescoes, and the Forum Granary, used to store hundreds of amphorae.
