Этот увлекательный аудиотур в приложении, включающий билет, поможет вам исследовать древний город Помпеи, который некогда был центром жизни, культурных преобразований и бурной цивилизации. Когда случилась трагедия и Везувий начал извергаться, разрушая всё на своём пути, Помпеи были поглощены пеплом. Город превратился в останки и руины, которые до сих пор сохранились в невероятной целостности. Этот тур перенесет вас в другую эпоху. Прогулка по его улицам, наполненным историческими и археологическими сокровищами, позволит вам почувствовать, как оживает этот древний город. Когда-то здесь кипела жизнь, и вы сможете в этом убедиться, посетив театр, священную зону и публичный дом. Особенно трогательным являются гипсовые слепки некоторых жертв. Узнайте, как пепел и специальные археологические методы позволили сохранить останки в их первозданном виде. Примечание: Эта экскурсия не аффилирована с парком Помпеи, а предоставлена независимым автором. Билет включен в стоимость для удобства клиента, без дополнительной наценки.

Pompeii is a popular tourist attraction and can get really crowded at times, despite its vast territory. We strongly recommend visiting off-season, between November and March. Timewise, mornings are the best option if you wish to start early and have enough time to explore the sites.
The House of the Golden Cupids (Casa degli Amorini Dorati), one of the most elegant and spectacular structures in Pompeii, was named after the cupids engraved on two golden medallions that were found decorating the cubicle of the house’s portico.
Discovered in the beginning of the 20th century, the house is thought to have belonged to a wealthy citizen, a relative of Nero’s second wife. The site is perhaps most famous for its cozy little garden with a fountain and a pond, which was decorated with statues, reliefs, theatrical masks, and medallions. Intricate mosaics and traditional red and yellow paintings on the walls are characteristic of the interior.
The walls of the house were covered with ornate frescoes depicting, among other scenes:
- figures from Greek mythology, such as Achilles and Patroclus
- the meeting between Paris and Helen
- Leda and the swan
- Aphrodite fishing
- Egyptian gods, including Anubis, Isis, Harpocrates, and Serapis
- snakes, sea creatures, and still lifes
There are three entrances to the archaeological park: Porta Marina (via Villa dei Misteri), Piazza Esedra (piazza Porta Marina Inferiore), and Piazza Anfiteatro (piazza Immacolata), all of those with official ticket offices. The Temple is located in the western part of the Forum, just a few minutes walk from the main entrance.
You can get to Pompeii by public transport or by car. The easiest option is to take the Circumvesuviana train from Naples or Sorrento (about 30 min, tickets should be bought at the station). Get off at Pompei Villa dei Misteri station, which is right in front of the Porta Marina entrance.
Other options are the Circumvesuviana from Naples to Poggiomarino (Pompei Santuario station) or FS from Naples to Salerno (Pompei station).
