Ercolano Vacations, Ercolano Vacation Reviews, Tourism Guide

The Archeologic site of Ercolano is just under the Vesuvio, a few kilometers from Napoles. My impression is it is smaller and better keeped than Pompei: you can see all the street and the buildings and you fill like you were in year 79 d.C. (so sometimes take a look at the Vesuvio...). To go there …

Ercolano(Herculaneum) was a smaller but wealthier town than Pompeii(it is thought to have been a seaside resort for wealthy Romans) and its excavations are  less known than the Pompeii's ones but they complete them having a better state of conservation. Since it is less famous…

Herculaneum (also known as Ercolano) was destroyed by a river of volcanic mud after the eruption of Vesuvius in 79AD. The town is not as famous as Pompeii, yet it is less than half an hour away and very well preserved. The mud helped to preserve the town & there are still a lot of roofs on the houses and many well preserved wall paintings. It takes about a day to see the whole site in detail.
