If you’ve ever visited the ancient ruins of Pompeii you will know that it is one of the world’s most fascinating tourist attractions.
The city was partially buried under 5m of ash and pumice following the explosion of Mount Vesuvius in AD79. Following the explosion, Pompeii remained virtually untouched for the next 1,700 years, preserved as if sealed in a time capsule.
And now you can explore this once prosperous city using an interactive map which can be found at – https://dayinpompeii.com/.
The website takes visitors on a tour of the last 24 hours in Pompeii before the eruption.
If you’ve been to Pompeii before it’s the perfect way to relive the memories, and if you’ve never visited the city, it’s an ideal way to get a feel of what life was like back in AD79.
