Discover all the places of interest to visit in Pompeii

Pompeii was one of the largest and most splendid cities of Roman times, and today its archaeological excavations are among the most visited and fascinating sites in Italy. The archaeological park is accessible year-round and also includes the sites of Boscoreale and Oplonti in Torre Annunziata. Along with the ruins of Herculaneum, it is declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

To relive the history of this ancient city swept away by the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 A.D., you can start your tour at one of Pompeii's most luxurious dwellings: the House of the Faun, known for the statue of a satyr placed in the center of the rainwater collection basin. Then admire the plaster casts of the Orto dei Fuggiaschi and visit one of the top attractions: the Lupanare, the city's most important dating house, decorated with paintings of erotic art.

Don't miss the Villa of the Mysteries with the charm of its intriguing and emblematic frescoes, reopened to the public after significant restoration work, and the Temple of Apollo, among Pompeii's main religious centers and among the city's oldest buildings. Statues adorned it, such as that of Apollo the archer preserved in its original version at the Archaeological Museum of Naples. Also, don't miss the Cave Canem Mosaic, the Forum and the Amphitheater of Pompeii.

Another point of interest in Pompeii is the Shrine of the Blessed Virgin of the Holy Rosary, which attracts millions of Catholics from all over the world each year.

Pompeii has no typical culinary tradition, and its cuisine brings together the main recipes of Campania's gastronomy. The best restaurants and trattorias can be found in the area of the archaeological excavations and near the Shrine of the Blessed Virgin of Pompeii.
