When we talk about Naples, we cannot avoid its surroundings with three well-know island, and coast line, and even volcanos. I will not take account these various things for this posting, but little description about Volcano. Geographically, Naples has squeezed structure between two volcanoes, Campi Flegrei and Mt. Vesuvio. The former is related with the eastern part of Naples that occupied from Fuorigrotta, one of the business streets in Naples, to the Possillipo. In opposite direction, we can see quite famous volcano that is called Mt. Vesuvio with its representative two peaks. This is easily see by various photos on Naples and even one of
previous posting. The mountain is main actor for the destruction of Pompeii and Ercolano that is southern parts of Mt. Vesuvio.
As many people know, Pompeii is buried 79 AD. After more than 18 centuries, it is buried on the area where the city was. From it’s discovery, many of area is still on-going excavation in order to recover and protect its old structures. Since there is no human destruction for a long time, it still contains lots of old heritage that comes from Roman Empire. Here, I contain one of the picture that draw my attention to old stories, and touch deep inside of mine.
