The unique story of Pompeii dates back to the 8th century BC and ends in 79 a.C., when  the  scary eruption of  Vesuvius, covered with ash and lapilli, up to a height of six meters, burying its inhabitants. At the time of the eruption, many buildings werebeing reconstructed, following the earthquake in the 62 a.C. The archaeological excavations have returned loquacious cuts in the life of the inhabitants. Through the technique of castings, introduced in 1863, today it is possible to observe scenes of daily life immortalized by the eruption. Continuously subject to new excavations or restoration works, in 1980, the site was further damaged by the earthquake of Irpinia. In 1997 the archaeological area became a Heritage of Humanity.

A visit that will make us discover one of the "remote" places of the city of Naples, where the narrow streets and views give an ancient atmosphere: the Casale di Posillipo. A place that stands out from the rest of the neighborhood and that has its origins in the need for fishermen to defend themselves against enemy incursions along the coast. A village that developed around the Church of Santo Strato, linked to a cult led by three religious from Greece, who managed to earn a sum of money performing in the streets of Naples as jugglers and invested in 1266 to build a church in honor of the Saint. Since the Middle Ages this area of Posillipo has developed as an agricultural village and with the establishment of some religious communities, generally constituting the peripheral branches of the orders residing in the center of Naples. Santostrato represents the largest inhabited nucleus of the hill where they are still present, the testimonies of a minor architecture with an agricultural-residential vocation and that returns to the visitor unexpected panoramas.
