On August 24, 79 AD the city and its inhabitants were virtually buried alive by a violent eruption of the region’s resident volcano, Vesuvius.Almost perfectly preserved under a layer of volcanic rock, Pompeii with its ruins, relics and ash body casts,now presents us with a hauntingly clear image of Roman life in the 1st century.

- Temple of Apollo
- Temple of Jupiter
- A market with ruins of various shops

They have a fresh accessible style which makes it fun. The recipe seems to be the more you enjoy the more you learn. And it works."
