Archeological Park of Herculaneum
After a long sleep, Vesuvius woke up on October 24, 79 AD. This eruption
was apocalyptic since it destroyed the ancient Roman cities of Pompeii
and Herculaneum. Herculaneum was discovered in the 18th century
and became one of the most famous archaeological sites in the world.
Nowadays, Herculaneum boasts several landmarks such as the house
with the mosaic Atrium, the house of the Deer, the Thermal spas of
the Forum, the house of the mosaic of Neptune and Amphitrite, which
definitely deserve to be visited. Herculaneum is smaller than Pompeii
and can be visited in an hour and a half. This tour includes transfer from
Naples and English commentary. As you wander through the streets of
Herculaneum, you are not only offered a unique glimpse into the private
lives of the Romans, but you can also sense the panic that surprised its
inhabitants when the volcano erupted.
