Pompeii in the history books! Let me see the end of the world

🇮🇹 The city left over from the great ancient Roman Empire 📍Pompeii ⭐️Top stream in European archaeology ⭐️One of the world's top ten rare treasures from ancient tombs ⭐️One of the most popular tourist attractions in Italy ⭐️Rated as a world cultural and natural heritage "Nothing in this world lasts forever" This is an inscription on a mural in Pompeii. But in the end, he gave his all to verify this statement. 🌋【Historical Background】 In 79 AD, Mount Vesuvius, which had been dormant for 1,500 years, suddenly erupted. Volcanic ash about 5.6 meters thick completely buried this prosperous and luxurious city located in the Bay of Naples. People began to flee like the end of the world, but in the end no one in the city was spared. In despair, people were wrapped in volcanic ash, frozen in their final poses... It was not until 1594 that locals discovered a stone tablet with the word "Pompeii" engraved on it while building a canal, and this legendary city slowly emerged. In 1748, the king ordered the excavation of the ancient city of Pompeii. Finally, the giant of ancient Rome awakened, and Pompeii was once again presented to the world. ———————— When the air of ancient Rome becomes thin in the long river of history, The ancient city of Pompeii, which has been sleeping for more than 2,000 years, still looks the same as it did originally. Perhaps, simply using the word "shocking" to describe Pompeii is too one-sided. However, I did some research and watched the documentary and the movie "The Last Days of Pompeii" before leaving. But when I really stood among these dusty monuments, stepped on the deep and shallow marks left by the carriages, touched the graffiti on both sides of the street, looked at the price list in the tavern, next to which were the wine money owed by the guests, the bakery storing burnt and burnt bread, and walked into the arena that could accommodate 20,000 people and the theater that could accommodate 5,000 spectators, I was imagining that this place was always crowded with people, reveling in glory! Everything is so clear and profound. After walking around the ancient city for 3 hours, I may not even remember the name of every building, but through these stones, I can feel the footsteps of time and hear the whispers of history. Travel through the beauty of thousands of years, pick up the story of ancient Rome and reunite with the past and present of the ancient city of Pompeii. This is the cycle of destruction and rebirth! History becomes accessible through archaeology! It contains true knowledge and is a mirror. Learn from yesterday, know today, and change tomorrow. After more than a hundred years and the joint efforts of several generations of archaeologists, the ancient city of Pompeii has gradually lifted its mysterious veil, protected the entire ancient city, and fully displayed the true appearance of the Roman Empire city in the 1st century AD. Provide people with more opportunities to understand Pompeii! Come to Pompeii! Life is like a dream! 🌈【Strategy Information】 🚅Transportation: 1️⃣Depart from Naples Central Station Take the Circumvesuviana train To Pompeiscavi Station The ticket price is 3.3 Euros and the journey takes about 45 minutes 2️⃣Take the Italian National Railway Trenitalia ‼ ️ (The Circumvesuviana train I took was very convenient. It went around the sea and you could see Mount Vesuvius when you looked up. The disadvantage was that the carriages were relatively old and there were many stops. The advantage was that there were many trains.) 🎫Ticket price: 19 Euros, guide 8 Euros ‼ ️ (The ticket office next to the platform is unofficial. You need to walk 200 meters to the entrance of the scenic spot to buy tickets. You need to press your ID to rent an interpreter. There are Chinese versions and you can plug in old-fashioned jack headphones. Get a free map in the service room.) ⏰Recommended playing time: 2-5 hours ✅You can bring some dry food and water with you. I went there in January and didn’t see any place selling food and water. ✅There is no shade at all open-air attractions, so please pay attention to sun protection and prepare sunglasses and parasols in summer.
